The original #0-6299 390 CFM came out as a street/competition carb in the late '70s/early '80s for 4 cylinder Pintos and Vegas. This one has a special float and reversed power valve to prevent high speed vibration common on the 4s. Part # 0-8007 390 should be used on 6s and small 8 cylinder engines.
