will an edelbrock 4bbl carb bolt up to a stock manifold

what would be a good carb for a street ported 12a

 

edelbrock 500 cfm thunderseries with a 1/2" open spacer on a racingbeat intake, oooooor a sterling on your stock intake.

 

holley or u could go with a weber setup

 

actually listen to 84stock he knows more than i do, hes been around longer

 

no aftermarket carb will fit the stock intake, unless u have one of those aluminum adapters welded to it. if u have an edelbrock carb, then get the holley intake from RB. both RB and mazdatrix sell carb kits for what ur looking for.

 

It's not too hard to make an aluminum adapter plate to run a Holley on the stock intake manifold. Edelbrocks don't work too well on the stock manifold because the water pump is in the way; you need a Racing Beat manifold and a spacer for it to clear.

Personally, I'm partial to Webers. 48 IDA or 48 DCOE are both good choices.
