Hello again, thread number 2.

I have a 750cfm edelbrock on my cleveland right now, and it works beautifully except for when you are flooring it from idle, it gives too much fuel and sort of bogs.

This problem only occurs from idle, if im at say 1500rpm and floor it, it just goes.

I have tried fiddling with the air/fuel mix screws as well as put the accelerator pump linkage in the "leanest hole" with no result.

You guys have any tips? Would jetting it down a bit sort this out or is this problem not related to the jetting at all?

 
You may have to change the step up springs and/or metering rods. See the calibration section of the Edelbrock manual. The Edelbrock carburetors I have used were rich out of the box.

I would also try advancing the timing a couple of degrees to see if that has any effect.
