    I have a 75 Cat with a 351W and 2v Carb. I bought a 4v stock intake manifold and was trying to decide between a stock 4v carb vs an Edelbrock 1405/1406 carb with an electronic choke.

    I'm really getting sick of this Holley carb on my cat...I've adjusted it about 10 times (with a vacuum gauge) and it keeps coming out of adjustment after two days....the crazy thing is, the float adjustment screws almost come all the way out before it idles normally, but then drinks gas like a...
