Hotfingrs.....

So YOU'RE the guy!!!

Every site has one....

I've been here for a short time and received nothing but help and good advice.

You're the only idiot so far. There's always ONE.

Thanks for the advice Wideglidejoe....I appreciate you taking the time to explain the cam issues I could encounter. I am NOT married to the idea of having ONLY an Edelbrock carb...I just want something that works well and had some limited experience with them. The guys at ERA should be able to set me straight. If that means fixing some other mechanical issue, properly adjusting my existing Holley, ordering a Quick fuel, or whatever they recommend....I'm all in!!

I love my ERA....Just getting frustrated with some minor stumbling issues....If I get nice off idle acceleration, the wot seems to suffer, if wot is good it stumbles off idle.

I'm over my head here and I know it....I'll be the first to admit that....The Mustang had the same issues and a carb swap to an Edel fixed it....But this ain't no Mustang so I shouldn't assume the same fix will work.

Thanks again everyone......

Well, except for our ONE GUY!

Pretty quick to call someone you don't know names.... Until you do know me...keep your mouth shut when it comes to calling someone an idiot. The responses you got were all people trying to help you, but your mind was already made up, so why ask?

That should be easy to fix....hopefully they'll set you up.

And it all depends on which Holley you have. Some are more tunable than others.

Have them check your timing and the timing curves as well.
