Re: tuning my carb

When you say "pig rich", during what operating range are we talking about? There are some good reference books out there for tuning a carb. The Edelbrock carbs are notorious for being difficult to dial-in. The old Carter AFB and AVS are similar (in design, not nearly as difficult), and tuning techniques that work for them should work for the E-carb. Look for some books on tuning AFBs, and that will get you all the info you need.
