    Today I fitted my Edelbrock which I sourced from your side of the pond off fleabay 2nd hand .

    Fingers crossed ,it fired up first kick setteled to a steady ticker over and reved through the rpms .

    Layed it on its side apart from oviously loosing fuel fuel it purred like a baby after being on the breast . Hopefully thats the end of loosing track time kickind the sod over for eons after a spill

    Lets hope it performs aswell on a run

    I've got one on my 400 an excellent piece of kit, especially as you state when you drop it, normally starts first or second kick
    Sometimes strating when cold can be a problem as there's no choke.
    You certainly got it for a good price
