I didn't want to highjack the thread on this topic. I may not be looking at the right areas but when I try to look up how to adjust the transfer screw on a edelbrock carburetor all I get is information about the idle adjustment. I even tried to get photos of the bottom of a edelbrock carburetor but it doesn't say anything about this. Would someone post a picture of the Transfer slot adjustment on a edelbrock carburetor. Thanks

Did you use search for "transfer slot". THere have been many discussions here about it. @AJ/FormS knows what's going on with it. There is no "screw" or "adjustment" it is more of a modification.

Thanks. I found a video on it on YouTube, it's called transfer slot and I'm going to watch it.
 
Anyhow you asking this question tells me you haven’t held a carburetor in recent history. If you’re really this curious you could get a car and start learning for real.

It's been a while since I've had a carburetor. When I did I didn't know anything about transfer slot, all I was exposed to was idle, a/f ratio and float bowl adjustment. The so called car guys that I knew back then never mentioned it either. This and other things is probably why a guy in high school had a mean running 350 Pontiac. I understand what you're saying about the car issue as well. I'm just trying to learn didn't mean to upset anyone

I had been around cars since the 60's and never heard of it until I joined up here. I still haven't studied it enough to know all about it. Don't feel like the Lone Ranger so they say.
