Near perfection for a street set up like you're thinking then.  Only 2 things I'd mention:

1. Verify that it is 9.5:1 or more.  Anywhere between 9.5 and 10.5 will work great(though over 10 pump gas becomes iffy.)

2.  Seriously consider trading that dp 750 straight across for a 750 vacuum secondary version. Center hung bowls, and duel inlet model of course.
This may be considered as the true palladium of liberty. . . . The right of self defence is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine this right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any colour or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction- St. George Tucker, Blackstone's Commentaries

    Not a sleeper (but it wakes people up) and maybe not affordable, unless you find one out in the sticks, but I have this. The pic is from around 72 or 73.
