I owned an Edelbrock Carb a few years back. Great carb to learn on
Overall once tuned in it ran really good but developed acc. pump problems about a year in so I replaced it with a Holley. Best choice I made with that car.
Overall a better carb in my opinion.
I wouldn't worry too much about setting the choke, Just do it when it's cold & inch it closed in increments until it starts best for you. Unless of course you already know what your doing...Just ignore this post
Good luck
