Within reason, you can make almost any carb work on an engine. Your problem was undoubtedly not the CFM (size) of the carb, but the jetting. The jetting is everything. I think the Boss 302 with old iron Cleveland heads came from the factory with a 750 or 780. Get the jetting right and it will be fine.
