I will eventually need to buy a carb for my mild 350. I've only had experience with quadrajet / edelbrock carbs - no problems with them. What's the general opinion on the predator carb? They are plentiful and cheap on e-bay, as are holleys and edelbrocks. I just think they look cool - but do they work? I'm running a 700r4 trans, if that matters. Thanks!

In my opinion, Holley carbs and their equivelants are "race" only carbs and are hard to adjust to maintain smooth driving operations. I would stay with the Quads and Edelbrocks for street use,
