Oh really? Just how much do you know about these carbs. Is your vehicle the only one you're worked on?

Enlighten me. Just where does a 1970 "truck especially" have to pass emissions except for visual smoke?

I don't recall any of these coming with Edelbrock carbs anyway, Rochester maybe?

I don't recall Edelbrock even on any consultant list for any car makers. Holley - Yes with mostly Ford products, Carter, Stromberg common on Mopars, GM was Rochester for about everything I can think of before and after 1970.
It's opinion on my part but folks who tossed Rochesters for another just didn't' understand Rochesters,

The edelbrock is basically a carter AFB with a ELDELBROCK plate . In my book one of the least difficult carbs to dail in.
