If you go Edelbrock , realize that fuel pressure is a biggie, you will either need a low presure pump or a fuel pressure regualator. If you have over 6 psi, it will never run right and you will leak fuel all over your new manifold. And if your considering the 600 performer or the 650 AVS, I would go with the 600. IMO the AVS is not worth the extra money.
I moved on to the AVS carb for the extra flow capability, to me it was a worthwhile change.
