I decided to go with the Edelbrock Pro Flo 4 System for my #ETCGDadsTruck engine. I liked that it was a ‘complete system in a box’ that I could adjust from the drivers seat via the supplied tablet.
I hope this video gives you some insight into what you’ll find inside the box of an Edelbrock Pro Flo 4 system.

Definitely good stuff! I had occasion to use a wide variety of aftermarket engine parts/assemblies while in business - and there are very VERY few products that are consistently made correctly, fit correctly, assembled correctly, are ready to install out of the box, and perform as advertised, and one of those few companies that deliver as promised is EDELBROCK! Well done ETCG!

We installed the other version of this unit on a 67 Chevelle SS. 496 ci 13.5:1 compression. System has the tunnel ram style manifold, and absolutely doesn't miss a beat. Very nice kit. Well thought out design and does exactly what it is meant to do. The Chevelle is also an E85 fuel so, no issues at all. Only needed to increase the injector size a bit to compensate.

Edelbrock make nice quality stuff, back in the day ive seen more than a few of their Carter clone 4 barrel carbs and they were so easy to set up and tune especially with the electric choke. Holley on the other hand seemed to be way more finicky and always seemed to require re-jetting and lots of playing around to get them running right. Far as I know these Edelbrock intake setups are easy to get going and are virtually trouble free once set up. What a well thought out nicely engineered setup.

Edelbrock seriously needs to rethink their packaging within the box. I was so surprised that you didnt have any damage to the fuel rails during shipping when you pulled the box top off. Some dense foam or something that would would keep the intake from moving around inside the box. I ordered rotors last week and UPS had to send them back due to damage during shipping before I even received them. Seriously, damaged rotors?

I went with the fitech power adder 600 to save a few hundred bucks. It has fought me left and right since day one. It either randomly doesn't want to start, or won't run after it initially fires. Without touching the settings, its behavior changes from day to day. I'm afraid I'll have to take the hit and pick one of these edelbrocks up soon.

My thoughts exactly, getting vortec heads for my tbi 350 and was thinking about going this route.

Also the distributor gear is composite so it’s compatible with roller cam or non roller cam

@buttercupstruelove340 4 года назад
I wonder if a crank trigger system could be adapted to work with the Edelbrock EFI, since the ignition advance is handled by the ECU. I like coil-on-plug ignitions but on a Chevy the coil placement would be close to the header tubes and would be vulnerable to heat damage. You could mount the individual coils further away and run short lengths of spark plug cabling but that would negate some of the benefits of coil-on-plug. The Edelbrock system seems like the simplest plug-and-play solution.

@@buttercupstruelove340 you can build a bracket that mounts over the valve cover and away from heat. I think that would be possible, and coil per spark plug will benefit the coil build time... just my thoughts, I could be wrong

Samuel G While that would definitely be a step up there's nothing particularly "wrong" with distributor/single coil ignitions. The entire reason the factories and then the aftermarket went to coil on plug ignition is to prevent a POSSIBLE misfire - cars are held to emission's standards for 100,000 miles, coil on plug lessens the possibility of that happening if maintenance is ignored. A properly maintained distributor ignition can equal the performance if properly maintained. Way back in the "dark ages" we ran points distributors well past 7500rpm without misfires, the trick there was avoiding point bounce - that took frequent point set changes and high tension on the point spring, but it did work. technology makes life SO much easier! Just a heads up.

Buttercups True Love It most certainly could be modified to use coil on plug - but there's so much more the system would have to do that it would cost a lot more. On an engine like this - or any V8 that originally had a distributor - it would still need the bottom half of a distributor, 1st to drive the oil pump and then to tell the ECM which coil to fire and when. The ECM on distributor ignition is told to fire the coil by the distributor, and then the rotor points to the correct cylinder to fire. Coil on plug uses a cam and crank position sensor, from their pulses it calculates which coil to fire - this requires a much more sophisticated ECM and those two sensors - adapting those sensors takes a bit of work. Chrysler/Jeep did just that on the 4.0 online 6 - they added the crank sensor back by the flywheel and used a single pulse from a sensor in a "stub" distributor for the cam pulse. (the distributor runs at the same speed as the camshaft). A lot of work to do at home. There are systems made (F.A.S.T. is one company) like that, but they're MUCH more expensive!

Unless I’m building a long term daily driver ( which may happen at some point) I could never justify the cost of this. Of course I’ve daily driven carb engines for years with no problem. I don’t get why people think they can’t daily drive them. But today’s gas prices and the potential mpg gain is the only reason I would buy this EFI. I’ve considered for a long time building a Chevy C10 or Ford F100 daily driver instead of buying a new modern truck. In that case I could justify this EFI system. On the other hand the extra 2,000 bucks could just go torward a LS or Coyote engine in the first place instead of EFI equipping a old engine. Also money spent on a 6 speed transmission, whether auto or manual, goes a long way in increasing fuel mileage. Without a modern transmission the EFI will only go so far in regard to mpg. On second thought a tremec 6 speed would be on my list first and perhaps EFI later.
