Edelbrock Carb Specifications
Carburetors help to regulate air and fuel flow through an engine. Edelbrock carburetors have been a household name since the early 1930s and 1940s. Edelbrock carburetors today are designed to fully operate as soon as you install them into your engine. They are cast from aluminum, which makes them lighter than other brands of carburetor. Each carburetor also features a design that keeps gaskets or seals above the fuel line to reduce the risk of fuel leaks.
Performer Carburetors
The Performer series of carburetors do not have backfiring issues because they use metering rods. The rods also allow you to change the fuel and air mixture without disassembling the carburetor. With any of the Performer carburetors you can select a manual or electric choke. This series gives you the option of carburetors that have a measurement of 500, 600, 750 or 800 CFM, or cubic feet per minute.
Thunder AVS Carburetors
The Thunder series of carburetors has an AVS system, or an adjustable valve secondary. This feature allows you to adjust the carburetor by tightening or loosening only one screw. By adjusting the screw, you are adjusting when the carburetor opens depending on what the engine needs. As with the Performer series, you can select either a manual or electric choke. The Thunder series is available in 500, 650 or 800 CFM sizes.
Marine Vehicle Carburetors
The Marine series is designed specifically to be used on boats. You can select between 600 and 750 CFM sizes. These carburetors do not have vacuum ports, and adhere to the safety standards set forth by the Coast Guard. The Marine series is coated in Teflon to protect it from salt and fresh water. You only have the option of an electric choke with the Marine carburetor.
94 Two-barrel Carburetors
The two-barrel carburetors are specifically for restored vehicles or hot rods. These carburetors are designed for small caliber engines to meet the original carburetor specifications.
