Hi Mark, I have a 406, so I went with the 750. It has much greater throttle response. Due to the square bore design the response is instant when compared to the old Q-jet. It does not have the lag when the secondaries are opening. The Edlebrocks in general are incredibly easy to work with(tuning/rebuilding). I am also getting an average of 2-3 mpg more than before. I haven't been able to make a timed run with it yet, but it "feels" faster. On top of that, it looks great under the hood. While I am sure the proper Holly or some other high buck carb would do better, for the average street guy like myself, it is hard to beat for the money. I have 2 600cfm Edlebrocks on other vehicles for around 10 yrs. now and have had absolutely no problems and have been very pleased in general. I know I sound like a salesman, but they have impressed me that much. Unless you're into serious competiton it is the best route to go, IMO. Good luck and enjoy!

Brian,
What difference has it made? I'm thinking about making the switch too.
Thanks,

Thanks,
I have a 90's 350 in it and it is my understanding that I would have to change the manifold as well, or go with an adapter. What are the thoughts out there?
Thanks again,
Mark
