    I was offered an edlebrock 4bbl carb for 50 dollars, i dont remember the cfm but its was on a 302, it had the electric choke. the guy said it worked great.

    it looked like all it needed was a rebuild. i didnt know alot about the carb so i didnt know if it would fit or even work after some TLC with it.

    I passed up on it for the time being. was this smart or am i kicking my self in the shin.:16suspect

    I'm not a big fan of edelbrock carbs..... but they are realitively user friendly. But a cheap carb should never be passed up. Allways nice to have around
