Will Edelbrock TPI STB fit a carb setup
As I stated, I have a tpi strut tower brace and never took it out of the box. Instead of trying to send it back for a carb/tbi setup I was wondering if the tpi one i have would fit a carb setup with no or little modification. I read somewhere here that someone has done this. If not anyone want to trade a tpi for carb stb. I live in Pittsburgh

That doesnt look too shabby at all, but the window pisser bottle needs some re-painting

As I look at the picture of the Edelbrock STB for TBI I can't figure out why it won't work for a carb'd car with AC on the passengers side. It looks like its far enough back that it won't interfere with the bracketry. Has anyone actually tried it.

Couldn't say about that; but most of the carbed cars have the AC on the driver's side, like the one in the pic did before it was hacked off.
That STB won't fit those because the AC lines interfere with it.
