Default What replacement carb for a 411-S1?

Hello,

I must make some amendments to what I wrote about the Edelbrocks several months ago. The difference in linkage from the standard Carter was not as little as I thought initially and, though the 1403 was quite good, the kick-down never worked well and arrangement was awkward. At the end I found that rebuilding the original Carter 3249 (once again, but this time with a brand-new quality kit) was enough to have a good result. Then the engine blew, and now that I am waiting to get the parts from the US I have also bought a brand-new Carter 3131S (NOS, never installed) and I'll have this one rebuilt too and fitted to the 318. BUt the Edelbrocks were good, well built and worked well.

Cheers

Stefano
