When I talked to the people at Edelbrock they said that it wasn't designed for my
setup.  And I wouldn't like the way it ran.  They said it was designed for stock
454.
I asked because a buddy that works at a speed shop said he could get it for me at
$1000.  But I would need an air horn and GM computer. Which I don't know how to
"tune".

NOW that is CAMMY, but not as bad as if it was in a 350.  Idle will be a sinch,
especially with the Richmond 4+1.  BTW, want to buy a Muncie M22?
