I wonder why Edelbrock didn't make 3 step metering rods for their tuning kits.

Actually, the one's I've seen are an infinity step metering rod............

The lean section tapers to the rich section, so when you're in a transistion state it varies........
Kind of like a Thermoquad metering rod?

I had a 600 Eddie and sold it. I did pull the rods. Just never compared them to anything else.

Bet you can't guess where I was sniffing around the carb section today looking up part numbers!
Ray said you were going to be in the shop tomorrow, bout what time? I'm off work at 2:30 and can be there in 5-10 mins.
D'OH!!! I was there in that timeframe but didn't check on here before going over there today, and didn't have my phone with me. And Ray didn't say anything! :-(

Really, I would be interested in this setup. The current Edelbrocks have two step metering rods. I believe the old Carter AVS had three step metering rods. Years ago, I did run across an AFB that had three step metering rods.
