Edelbrock Carburetor tuning question...
This is where I am. I have bigger squirters in my 600. I got them from a 750 that was junk and giving to me for free. I have the accelerator pump on the richest setting also. this has helped a lot, but I have ordered the step up springs for 12 bucks. This is my last attempt to cure, then I'm swapping to a Holley.
It's a shame that the whole classic car industry is trying to deal with this "bog" in the eddy's, yet eddy seems to have no knowledge or the will to do anything about it.
Have you ever done an A/F ratio test ?
Do you have any idea what your A/F ratio is at idle, cruise, wide open ?
How about fuel pressure at these stages ?
What makes you think you have to go richer, or grab the parts off a 750 to make it run better ?
Just wondering if you have sound proof on which way you need to shoot, or are you just taking a shot in the dark ?
With all the missed matched parts from 750 etc, your carb is way out of wack. If I were you I would set everything back to the box stock settings. Jets, springs, rods.
As long as you have the right matched carb for the application, Edes generally run pretty well with the factory settings, give or take a couple small tweaks.
These Edes are generally the easiest carbs to set up. Unless you have alot of experience with Holleys, they are not going to be any easier.
