I have had both the Edelbrock and Carter brand carbs in the past on a street vehicle and neither one of them ran right but i guess for a street vehicle they are okay if you already have one but definitely are not for perfomance.I switched mine out for a Holley and was a huge difference.I would never buy a new Edelbrock or Carter Carb ever again.

I did this before taking my Jeep to the dyno shop and they spent an hour trying to get it better but ended up with my settings in the end, proof that it works I guess?

so what kind of numbers should we be looking for then on an alcohol carb and a gas carb motor :?:
