Post by: Bobbyball on October 20, 2021, 07:03:25 AM

hi there , looking to see if anybody can give me a indication here.
I have a 76 C10 shortbox with a 350 motor , last owner fitted an Edelbrock 600 cfm carb.
anybody have any idea how many horses the carb adds ( if any at all)

cheers guys.

Unless other things, like intake manifold, cam, etc, I'd venture to say not much at all.  If that's all that was changed, it was probably a drivability improvement, not as much for power.

Shifty is correct. Add headers to the mix.
