Im looking at putting carburetors on a motor and trying to figure out how to select the carb size ?

Is it all based on head flow or is that only part of it ?
There isnt much on the internet other than proven engine combos.

Now a 250 Chevy straight 6 can run triple webers that flow 250 cfm per choke for a total of 1500 CFM, this is where i know IR manifolds work with higher CFM because obviously a single 1500 carb on a common plenum manifold would be way over carb'd.

Now its a 3.3 Subaru motor H6 boxer engine. 202 CI
HEad flow data found here

States it maxs out at about 165 cfm SO I would assume I can use that as part of the calculation. Obviously you cant go higher than that or your over carbing.

What are your thoughts ?
