I built a 68 428
went with the edelbrock package as well but opted for an Holley 850 mech double pumper manual choke
The builder said it would make more power and he recommended it .
I used the RPM cam which is hydraulic.

Just broke it in 2 weeks back

It may be a tad rich out of the box. (Jets are 78 and 80) But the jetting fun is later as I have not yet roadtested it. Its in the paint shop now. Most 428 will take over 800 cfm easy. Then depends on cam and heads.

BTW I dropped 110 pounds off the engine using the aluminum in the RPM kit
