Is this carb any good for 5speed with 350?

That is a double pumper, see where it says "fuel inlet: dual"

but yes that is a great carb

Double pumper and dual inlet don't have anything to do with each other. You can have a dual inlet vacuum secondary (have one in the garage attic).

Double pumper is Holley's trademark for mechanical secondary. Demon calls theirs dual squirter, since they can't call them double pumper.

That carb would be fine on a mild 350 - which is the most you would want in front of a T5, anyway.

Awesome carb. I run the 4777 on my 383 which is connected to a WC-T5 and it was alot better than my 750VS was.

I always thought a double pumper would be a bit much for a mild 350? Guess i have a lot to learn lol. Is it possible to have a mechanical secondary carb without the dual accelerator pumps?

Well, Holley did it with their 450 CFM (I think it was) spreadbore economy emissions replacement carb. You can imagine how popular that item was.
