Quote: 1 5/8 hooker comps were on there for testing - I didnt want to waste any time with a larger tube and a stock head.
I tried a few spacers, but it really didnt change much - I tried a couple 1" but with similar results.
I really thought one carb setup would walk away from the other but it really didnt...
Granted thats alot of cubes for a set of stock heads but I wonder if your choke was the 1 5/8 headers... hard to say..
I'd think even with untouched Edelbrocks that 1 5/8" headers, no matter who makes them, would kill any performance stroker. If it was a truck motor they'd probably be fine.
