<DIV>A question to those of you who use the Edlebrock carburetor. You
indicate a long number of years and no issues. Have you had accelerator pump
problems? I’ve found the accelerator pump to decrease in function (or fail
all together) in a short period of time. Unlike the Holley diaphragm that
cost $3-$4 the Edelbrock pump is $12-$15 and requires removing the top of the
carburetor – including all the frustrating linkage gymnastics involved.
Otherwise, yes no leaky bowl gaskets, diaphragms etc. is a great reason to run
the Edelbrock.</DIV>

<DIV>I have the same set-up as Erich. Set it up 25 years ago and have not had to
touch it since.</DIV>

have a Mk 1A Tiger with a stock 260 engine. I need to purchase the
intake manifold and a carburetor ( electric choke desirable, but not
essential). This will be a street machine, not for the track. The
