Yup...thats small. My 770 SA on a 331 was professionally tuned with 72s and 80s as I recall. My 750 DP was professionally tuned with 71s and 82s (or 83s...can't remember for sure). Both worked great although the 770 SA was selected for the car when I had a C4 and it would never open fully on the Secondary side for whatever reason despite light spring, opened up orifice (maybe the carb was too big for the engine). Migrated to a T5z and single plane and changed to a 750 DP and have never looked back.
