Building some good amt of HP on a 350 is best with 1 3/4. Other than that you should be fine.

The problem I have with the edelbrock headers is that they are stepped down to an 1 1/2 in places to broaden the low end torque, Or atleast they used to be, My car has way too much low end power, so I opted for the 1 3/4 to try to move the power band farther up the rpm range.

Used to be, but current ones aren't. My Edels are 1-5/8" all the way back to the collector.
