Fun fact: Edelbrock has been owned by a private equity firm since 2010. The same group also acquired comp cams in 2020. I'm sure we all remember the kind of quality Comp felt ok with putting their _"Premium"_ brand on starting in 2020.
Another example of double check everything. Today's quality control is very poor to nonexistent. For the carb I would go with the avs style. More tuning flexibility than the afb version. I've used all 3 afb,avs,thermoquad. Your doing a great job. 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Edelbrock was certified ISO 9001: 2008 in 2009. ISO means there is a lot of record keeping and businesses hate it. International Standards Organization is some Organization that is a racket that just takes money and makes things difficult.
QC was on vacation the week that lot went out the door. The guy that changes the bottled water said they looked okay and send 'em. Socket head cap screws FTW!
Are you gping to run a Phenolic spacer over an Alloy one? Always seemed to get better results from a 1 inch Phenolic spacer esp after a lot of driving. That and ran a thin alloy reflective sheild under spacer to divert heat away.
I've been known to be wrong. But I believe your carb is on backwards? You want the primaries to be over the small ports (even though you've opened them up).. or u can't mount that way, and by opening up the intake it doesn't matter maybe.
@@nickthevanman9011 ahh. Didn't realize you had 2 ! Man I just priced the duel plane.( I'm at the point in my 300, I need a carb, so looking at upgrading) The new intake is almost $1009 cad!!! Fuk me.
@@Stuffdexdoes try to find a used one, but yeah they are a bit step. Also....I'd avoid the dual port and get the c series. I got the dual port for $300 used. But am spending around $500 to have it totally milled out and ported. Honestly, you are better off with a c series. Far superior intake and works fine for street applications and in a truck or car the inline carb orientation is superior for linkage and packaging. A C series intake, a pair of efi exhaust manifolds, the new walker headpipe for the efi manifolds and a 500cfm Edelbrock or a 450cfm quick fuel 4 barrel and you'll add a solid 50-60hp to your engine. It won't even sound the same.... Add a mild cam, like a 260 or 268 grind from Delta Camshaft and youll bring your engine up to 200+HP.

Looking forward to see this develop.

That's cool.
Awesome!👍
All those years playing with Lego weren’t for nothing, it clearly fits quite nicely! 😂

Sweet!
Did someone at the factory get some metric - standard dimension confusion? I would use Allen head anyway.
I don't understand why they wouldn't have said bolts, on hand to test fit on said adapter before packaging as part of the QC ...

Yes, I'd like a nice quality phenolic tapered combo, about an inch thick. Improve distribution and signal and increase the plenum volume a bit.

This is a C Series, it doesn't have ports. The dual port intake is still at the porter and will end up on my 4 speed shorty.
