edlebrock is a streetclass that dose not leak from hte bowles.holley can give you power but,they are not as user friendly.both have good points.

Holley no questions asked!

Edelbogs are good if your not after performance, just street cruising. Plus on the practical side WAY more guys know how to tune holley's over edelbrocks. I say go with a holley 650 double pumper with mechanical secondaries

I find it much easier to tune a Holley than an Edelbrock.

I dont like Edelbrock carbs what so ever. I would never buy anything but a Holley carb like 69 fastback said they are much easyier to tune than Edelbrock.

I've never tuned either! But I have an edelbrock, so once I have to tune it, i'll be sure to post how much i want to kill myself

Yeah I have never heard anyone praise Edelbrock carbs ever. I only hear people that swear by Holleys They have been making them since the beging of cars so they outa be good by now

From what I understand, Holleys are better for power, and there's a metric crapload of people that know how to tune 'em. However, Holleys hate the cold, and it becomes a right bastard to start 'em when it gets below 40 or so.

At least, that's my experience.
