Edelbrock 500 AVS2
Finally had a chance this weekend to play with the cars. I've had this Ede 500 AVS2 for awhile, so I popped it on. It replaced a regular Ede 500.
After starting it I'm like holy s*** what the hell is wrong with this thing. It idled rough and sounded like crap, so I turned it off. After further inspection I forgot to put the plug in the back of the carb. Oops after going through the parts bin and finding a plug for it fired it up. After adjusting the air fuel, and the idle I took it out for a spin. First impression is that the car runs much better with this carb. Seem like it had much more acceleration on the bottom and the top. A little bit more tuning will be necessary, but for right out of the box this thing runs very well. The motor has a shaved cylinder head with bigger valves, Erson cam, Mopar electronic ignition, Clifford water cooled intake with headers. Factory Hurst 4 speed with a 355 gear. Fun little runner.
