500 cfm edelbrock carburetor...

on a stock slant with stock compression, thats too much carb. since an engine is an air pump, you slant with the stock cam, intake and exhaust, cannot attain high enough air flow to make that carb work properly. even if you adjust jets and needles. you will run into bogging issues on acceleration.

He said it worked fine for a week (till it loaded up the plugs apparently)
I guess it depends on the definition of fine.
