Holly or Edelbrock

Im lookin for a new 4 barrel carburetor with around 600cfm for my 66 mustang with a 289 V8 and i was wonderin whether Holly or Edelbrock would be a better choice

Edelbrock. Easier to tune and I have found to be more reliable.

Agreed, Edelbrock's are far easier to tune and deal with. If you like playing with your carb all the time, and really know what you're doing, then go holly

Im going to have to agree with those two. I'm a FORD NUT and I have an edelbrock on my own Truck. granted its a 400 big block and its only a 2 barrel carb. its pretty simple to tune and works great. I havent had any luck with holly carbs. It seems like they constantly require adjustment. So def go with the Edelbrock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I run holleys ONLY. Much easier to rebuild and tune, they run alot better than edelbrock too, look at what most pro racers run, you'll find it is holley the majority of the time.
