OK. I'll looking to buy a carb for the 69 GTS. I've heard the Edelbrock 600 with electric choke is the way to go for simplicity and "bolt on" done. The factory carb is giving me fits. Can anyone tell me which model # carb to get, and what I need to know aside from "bolt in on and go"??? Potential pit falls?
 
I have the stock factory intake, and I'm looking to "bolt on" for drive ability.

the electric choke models are much leaner than the manual choke edelbrocks..but both
are infinitely adjustable with metering rods,jets,step up springs,pump position,idle mixture etc.
avoid the dreaded 750 if you have a large cam..the 650 Thunder is a nice piece too!
it is hard to beat an Edelbrock carb...
 
I decided on the 1406 Edelbrock. Aside from the tech line at Edelbrock forgetting to mention that I needed a additional linkage for the Chysler, then a third part for the throttle cable and tranny kick down.....(Grrr! 3 freight bills) the carb works great. Very little adjustment, and the car is running like new again.
