Edelbrock is now making a AVS (automatic vacuum secendary) style fourbarrel. The AVS is considered by many to be the best 4bbl design ever. Very smooth and responsive, and about the price of any of the rest of the 4bbls. Elec choke, and the linkage shouldn't be a problem, if it is, there are adaptors.

Let us know how it works out.

Subject: [FWDLK] Which replacement carb to use?  '59 Dodge


I've been fighting a carb problem for awhile and I am thinking of replacing the
Carter AFB 4bbl on my 383 with a new Edelbrock.  Does anyone know which
model is an appropriate swap?  That would get me an electric choke and a
new carb instead of another rebuild.

Also,  I know that the new carbs have larger air horns, and I am prepared to
modify a stock air cleaner to fit it.  But I don't know about linkage: Are there
any issues with throttle linkage that I will need to address?
Thanks,

Lou
