"Ray - I don't know about with eyes closed, but to prove a point, I once changed metering rods in an AFB with the engine running."
Wow, I'm impressed.
"Not the e-clones, which are forever banned from my shop."
Can you explain why that is Jon? I have an Edelbrock 1405 with an electric choke added and jets and rods changed to ones the sbc 350 engine in my roadster likes. This roadster is an old man (73) driven street rod that isn't used for any racing or showing off. Do the E-clones misbehave in some way I'm not noticing?
