Im going to be buying a 4 barrel carb for my stock 289. Is a edelbrok
500cfm to much carb for a stock 289? Should i go with an electric choke
or manual?


It works just fine on the 260 in my Sunbeam Tiger.
I really like the Edelbrock carb. I have a manual choke but I never use it
in Southern California.
I let the electric fuel pump run for a moment, pump the gas pedal 3 or 4
times and hit the starter. It fires right away and idles well.
