Default Edelbrock 1409 Carb Marine Application

Looking at a good Edelbrock 1409 for a good price, only thing is it's for a marine application. Would these work well on a 350 out of the water as it does for in water?

Thanks,

Pass on it. Ran one on my 68 C-10 for a year. Couldn't tune it . Save your cash and get a Holley.

A marine carburetor will work perfectly fine on a non marine application and there is no difference in the tuning or set up.
You should never use a non marine carburetor for a marine application.
As far as the cfm and tuning for your engine and performance needs, I have no clue regarding if that particular carburetor will work with your set up and needs.
