edelbrock carburetor flooding like crazy....

I had somewhat of the same problem with two Eddie carbs and changed to a holley and have had a very happy 340 since then.

That's like saying you used a wheelbarrow with a hole in it and then switched to one without a hole and it worked better. :-)
Any carb that doesn't overflow will work better than any carb that does.

I have to agree that Holley makes a better performance carb, but the "set it and forget it" of an Eddie is hard to beat for a daily driver in my own oppinion.
I have used both at different times on diff cars.
