Hmmm, might have a similar problem.

Although my Edelbrock carb runs just fineon the straights, it just will not behave in tight turns, engine always loads up.

I have tried dropping the fuel level to the point where the engine leans out on WOT. I even fitted the higher flow needle valves to make up for the lower fuel levels.
I have blocked the channel that runs between the two float chambers at the rear of the carb.

Still the engine bogs when the sideways forces come on. Anyone got any further ideas? And no, junking it for a Holley would not be a helpful suggestion!

Personally, I think the problem may be that the floats lock up on their pivots with enough lateral g??
