How to Tune a Carb
I have an Edlebrock 750 with automatic choke. Can anyone tell me the proper way to tune the carb. I have a GM fast burn crate motor. Car runs fine but Carb was never really set up to the motor. all the tuners in my area only know how to tune FI with a computer. None of the old carb guys are around.

General tunning. No problems, it feels like the car is not getting enough fuel. Timing is fine, fuel pump puts out 7 PSI. Car runs really good but I played with the mixture screws a little and it's better.
