Need to add all of my sensors, wire harness routing and where I want to mount my ECU's. Also want to boat at the same time.

Had enough of that edelbrock pile of junk. Picked up one of those "brawler" series carbs. 850cfm double pumper. Really nice carb for the money. Billet metering blocks and baseplate, screw in bleeds, and so on. Was only $436 bucks new from summit.
Car runs MUCH stronger. No more hesitations, bogs, or any of that. Throttle tip in much smoother and more responsive. Air fuel ratio out of the box not bad at all. That edelbrock out of the box setup, was piston burning lean.

Yes, I am new to carb tuning but have done a Q-jet, a Weber using Edelbrock stuff, and now the Quickfuel. I find the Quickfuel easy to work on, but I know more now too. The silicone-like gaskets are key.
