Between the kids....the 356 project....the house remodel....it's been sitting. Tossed the shitty Rochester for an Edelbrock carb and I need to jet it right....

Starts, runs, goes fast...has a high idle....winter project once I finish the flares on Frankensteen and get Manfred dialed in.....

I don't think you'll find a single 914 V8 owner that didn't like his car ......

there are plenty of V8 914s in the Bay Area, I'm sure it wouldn't be that hard for you to hook up with an owner and go for a drive....you'll be addicted as soon as the car starts up

Mikey what didn't you like about the Rochester? I thought that Edelbrock carb
was a revamped Rochester.

The Edelbrock is a Holley copy with mods as far as I know.....

I also wanted a reliable electric choke....and for 250 bucks I didn't have to rebuild the puking POS Rochester....
