Re: [AMC-list] 77 Matador carburetion

[Todd Tomason <jayscore@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We put an Edelbrock 4v on my son's Matador and have been pretty happy with 
it.  I picked the smallest one Edelbrock offered, the 500 cfm Performer 
1404.  We started out with a SP2P manifold, and later changed to a Performer 
manifold.
