How big of a 4 barrel on a stock 1970 318?

I never said they werent good on the street, the holley’s just tend to be pickier than the edelbrocks and for that reason i believe the edelbrock is a less maintenance and more operator friendly carb.
it's ok, and it's fine, it's your opinion. And Holleys are "pickier" because you've experienced a few, I suppose? You made your opinion off of what appears to be hear-says, I make my opinion off of experience. I've owned multiple of each, and I just said that I've been running Holley's for years and years, rain, snow or shine, no issues. And NOPE! I didn't tune weekly, or monthly, or....... are u ready? or even yearly.
But I have no problem with somebody preferring eddys, or holleys, or carters. Pick and choose your own, and pick for whatever reason you wish :)
