Edelbrock 1404 on 318

For under $100 Carb + rebuild kit sounds good to me. Not sure what the choke kit cost now-a-days . I'd give it a go. A 1404 is really great for a small engine.I've run 'um on Slant Six cars and 318's. I even ran one on my 451 stroker B body. Many guys go too big on a the street car. Smaller CFM's give better throttle response.
