Very nice, I believe that Edelbrock may have been looking to improve this but two things to check, clearance around the distributor cutout and valve cover clearance at the injector risers. Distributor clearance is easy to fix with a die grinder, the valve covers and / or risers are likely to need a bit of surgery though. I had my risers milled back as far as I dared and I’ve just got clearance now. Not sure how you’ll do your linkages but I bought the Edelbrock 8041 as it appeared to accommodate a cable type kickdown nicely, which it does with my Bouchillion Kit.
I hadn’t thought about powder coating mine, are you going for a clear finish? I’d be interested to see how it comes out!
