Right, another technical edelbrock/ weber question. 3.5 litre, heavily ported heads, tubular manifolds/ exhaust etc, fast road cam. Problem is running VERY rich (about a gallon of fuel a second!!). Edelbrock 500cfm. Can anyone with a similar set up tell me what Venturi/Needle (Whatever these things have) to purchase to sort this out. I guess I have a very race orientated set up (Orange I think if that means anything).

Ta once again in advance.

their will bound to be someone their who knows, but having  spent that money surely you'll get it set up properly on a rolling road?

 

Also if it's running that rich I suspect something is wrong other than set up. Edelbrocks are V Sensitive to fuel pressure and I wonder if the pump pressure is flooding the carb. Do you run a pressure regulator?
