holly or edelbrock carb????????

ok heres the deal. i have a 92 camaro z28 and i took out the 305 tpi to put in a 350 carb...no ecu

everything is edelbrock on my car, manafold, rolling chains, water pump, cam, fuel pump,....and all my chrome parts.

the onlyt hing i need now is a carb. now im thinking about going with edlebrock 750 eletr choke.
i know how to use them and will match the rest of the car.

but im hearing from alot of sources that i should go holley,....what do you guys on my trusty forum think?????????? note- i have no clue how to use them, adjust them.

If you're more comfortable tuning it, then by all means go with the Edelbrock. The idea that it "matches" the rest of your parts better than some other brand is just marketing hype, though.

I'd pick the Holley as the better carb, personally.
