Not Ranked
Just my $.02 but I am pretty sure I recall the bolt pattern of the Edelbrock carb and the Holley carb to be the same. Everything said thus far has merit. Mechanical secondaries use more fuel because of the secondary pump shot and don't really offer any concrete benefits especially on the street. For a 351W anywhere less than in full race trim, a 600 cfm Holley with vacuum secondaries will work great and be plenty of carb. Use the 1850 rather than the #80457. You don't need emissions calibration and the idle circuit on the 80457 is, in my opinion a little too lean. Let's face it, Holley carbs just "LOOK" better on your Cobra. Nothing at all wrong with Edelbrocks' performance, though. Most Edelbrock intakes I have seen are drilled for two sets of studs so mounting the Holley should be no problem. Only minor rerouting of the fuel line will be required.
