Why are people still buying these "assembled"?
Just because eddy says "run them out of box, no machine work required" (or whatever the exact claim is) you simply shouldn't. Why would Edelbrock take ownership of product issues on pieces they create "as a favor" to the mopar crowd. I can see why they sort-of don't care. Hillbilly Chevelle owners are their bread'n'butter.
It seems to me buying them bare, looking them over, getting the dremel out, and having A REPUTABLE MACHINE SHOP assemble them (with quality parts of your choice) is the logical choice to save time, money, and aspirin.
