its say that is a MAJOR difference, but i cant help but think there was something wrong with that eddie carb, carb swaps usually only net about 10 horses at most
It wasn't just one Edelbrock, it was two brand new out of the box carbs. They were 750's which is too much carb for the motor, and I haven't got a clue what else might have been wrong. >shrug<

Your mileage may vary, and probably will.

You will probably need the Chrysler throttle cable linkage kit, otherwise it should just bolt up.

If you're not good at tuning, find a shop near you that you trust, and ask them what they'd put on it if it was their truck. If they like Eddy's, and you're going to have them tune it, put an eddy on it.
