Edelbrock carb has dead spot at full throttle

By Steve M - 08/23/2004 2:26:31 AM; IP 209.115.87.2

I put a brand new edelbrock 600 CFM carb on my 390 and it works ok, but if I am at a redlight and open it up all the way to the floor, it starts to rev and then it is like time stands still. I hear nothing and the car dies. When I had my holley on there, it never did that. Any suggestions from anybody with experience on carbs? If I let off of the throttle in time I can keep it from dying sometimes. I am trying to tune this thing so I can run it at the All Ford Expo in Columbus labor day weekend. Thanks

This thread, so far...
