Frank,
  My Holley Economaster has the electric choke on it.

The Jeepers get by running the bigger carbs because they run higher rpms 
than most street cars and bigger cams. I would never run anything more 
than 500 cfm on a 258 with a stock (or even mild performance) cam.
I looked seriously at the Holley Econo Master carbs. The only reason I 
didn't get one was the choke. They were made for Chevys and use a coil 
spring in the intake, not on the carb. Could have converted to manual 
choke, but wanted an auto.
For a new carb the 465 @ around $300 sounds like the best all-around 
deal. The Holley 390 is around $500-$600 new.
