mikey-
You've just gotten the straight scoop on the carbs. Forget the Edlebrock. It's nothing but a 1960's Carter AFB with a chrome housing and a different name on it. A real pain to work on, and you can easily drop one of the springloaded screws that hold down the metering neddles, in the carb while your trying to get it apart, or putting it back together after changing jets and metering needles. The plunger in the accelerator pump will shrink and not work if the car isn't used for a while.
