carb too big rookie mistake
hey anybody in need of a 750 eddy? it has about 2500mi on it and is in great shape. was bought from JEGS and has the base rods-jets in it it also comes with a new calibration kit. model number is 1411 of course with elect. choke. asking $225 plus USPS shipping. thx
p.s I am trying to git a 600cfm holley and I see its true the no.1 mistake most rookies make is too much carb. oh almost forgot the video and I will make another video showing the performance of the carb today.

A 750 is not to big for a 357 Quad. jet carbs are 700-750 it just needs tuning

Re: carb too big rookie mistake
Also the edelbrock carbs act similar to a vac secondary carb due to the air valve. It SHOULD only open as much as the engine allows. That's my understanding at least, I could be wrong.

Re: carb too big rookie mistake
the 1411 has 110 primearies and 107 secondaries. flip them around. then see how it runs. Thats what i did on my 383 . plus 15lbs of vacum is not bad at all. So move the front to the back and the back jets to the front and try that. you can find a video on that on the edelbrock page or youtube
