Edelbrock VRS-4150 YouTube EXCLUSIVE How it's Made! VRS-4150 SECRETS EXPOSED!!!  

I love this video. For so many reasons. The education. Seeing behind the scenes. “Meeting”the people. Seeing how it’s done. That pride that creeps up in you when you realize that’s a real live American building that carb with passion, skill and care right here, just for you! I know for a fact this man just buried himself in carburetor builds. For life. I want him building the next carb on the 70 Poncho for sure.

That new carb makes some serious power edlebrock really did there homework

This is probably the most exciting new hot rod product I've seen released in the last couple years and this video is steak for the gear head appetite. Keep it up!

13:33 Annular boosters. Nice!

I have made my mind up before Christmas to purchase at least one VRS4150 for my build. This was before I have seen any behind the scenes video on where it is don and how. Thanks Andy for posting this. THUMBS UP..

I don't mind having 750 4150 Edelbrock on my Pontiac 400

Cool tour ⛽️✊🏼

What a fun feild trip!

That's some serious quality control right there. Very nice carb.

Thanks Andy for the tour and also all you and edle Brock thank you very much that was a very interesting video how things are put together there quality control by one man

Kudos to edelbrock for keeping as much as possible US built. And Im not even an american.

Pure Gold Andy, Thankyou. They are a sweet Carby. I wish they would make a vac secondarys version.

Glad to be able to come back.

I hope you got 2 of them to go on Casper. These seem to be state of the art for carbs.

This is an amazing vid adventure! Well done!

I agree, Andy... the quality of the castings and machine work is beautiful. Just what you wanna see in a carburetor. I really want one now!

Vic's Edelbrock factory.

I just ordered one to put on my 68 Thunderbird with 429 thunderjet

I've got a 750 here on the shelf for my Mopar 383. Thank you William!

Thank you for this, it was awesome to watch and to see that they are USA assembled and tested.

I would like to see a dyno comparison with a comparable Holley and the new VRS-4150 and see the performance differences.

Now that’s an up close & detailed vid👌🏼, kudos Andy 👍🏼🏁

Those are truly good looking carbs and obviously a very high quality product. I wish I was still at the shop every and not retired, I'd love a chance too tune with these baby's!

There is almost no vids on here that show people tuning or using this carb yet can’t wait to see you tune it Andy

Id like to try a pair of those on my tunnel ram. Looks like you can fine tune those bad boys perfectly. Thanks for the look inside

Very, very cool guys. Thank you Edelbrock. I'm bolting a 4.0L Jeep Edelbrock aluminum cylinder head on a rebuilt short block today!! Whoop whoop!!

Thank you for giving us a tour. Nice to see a mix of old and new technology in mfg getting the job done. That old flow bench from carter is an antique and still doing work. Nice to see torque arms and dc tools to aid w the assembly. I hope the product does well

Andy, thanks a million for this video, man!

DUDE! Most excellent surprise video. I love it!

😊

Original first, well done.😎👍

First time seeing the VRS carb. Looks good. I came over here after watching the Q-jet vs VRS dyno. Great tour and thanks for highlighting the builders and their names. They deserve it.

Slick video on a Slick Carburetor! This place is less than an hour south of me. I've been inside passed by it once or twice. Definitely wouldn't mind gettin my hands on one.

Awesome 😎

@15:15, there's a step I missed! Had to do it the hard way, on the motor. :-)

That is very cool that only one guy builds each one !

They look like a quality built carby 👍🇦🇺

I loved the video. Edelbrock products are top notch, and are US made and they are focused on providing quality parts worth us spending our hard-earned money on. Going to an offshore producer for their products would have been more profitable but they would not have had the control of the quality like they do by making the products here in the USA.

Nice looking carbs....

Andy what a cool vid,I actually worked for magnetti,I worked in srew machines ,i made ALL the jets for elderbrock,and weber afb,I was also on the QUALITY IMPROVEMENT TEAM ACTUALLY HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO MEET SOME OF ELDERBROCK FAMILY ,NEVER EVER THOUGHT THAT YOU WOULD DO A VID IN LIL OL SANFORD,I HAVE LIVED IN SANFORD FOR OVER 47 YEARS ,I HAVE KNOWN THE ELDERBROCK CARBS, SINCE ITS BEGINNING, THERES ACTUALLY MORE TO THE STORY COMMING FROM A INSIDER,WHO SAW ,HELP IN ANY ISSUE'S OF QUALITY, PRODUCTION, AND EVEN TROUBLE SHOOTING ON RETURNS,THANKS ANDY NEXT TIME YOU ARE IN SANFORD GIVE ME A SHOUT OUT LOVE TO MEET YOU IN PERSON, DID YOU DRIVE CASPER DOWN😮 😊

Very cool! Thank you Andy

Interesting stuff! Especially the QA. Thanks for for sharing Andy…

Where else you gunna get this content!?👍

That was great, thankyou.

Great video. Thanks Andy!

I installed one on a roller cammed 350 chevy, it was close right out of the box, I haven’t fine tuned it yet, but totally drivable out of the box.

Thanks for making it happen William !!! Lovin this carb.

My dad has been working on and has modified so many Holleys, re machining the poorly cast bodies so they actually are the same size and shape just like the ebelbrock nice to see a quality product with great machining. I can not wait to show him the video showing the machined bodies and venturies. He has a made a special fixture to mount Holley carbs and re machine them for bearings for the throttle shafts and re machine all the gasket and mating surfaces as they are never flat and have a poor surface finish. Good on you edelbrock ps my dad has a pro ram II in the original box waiting for a project. Dad says tunnel rams are worth 40hp and 30ft of torque you can not do better on Na application . 😊

Very nice! Thanks for sharing and thank you William!

Informative - excellent content !

Seems like a good solid piece with quality way above what holley has been putting out in the past 20 years. Its nice they have went to a conventional 4150

Great video! Great people!

Really like the fact that the vrs doesn’t have a seperation between the throttle body and main body…

Wow Andy, you excelled your self with that vid. I just bought 3 of them. Two 650's for my 4" stroke CHI 4V Clevland. And an 830 or 850 for single 4 barrel use. Man, who said carbies are dead?! Yous all can punch your efi, with high pressure lines, returns to the tank and tank mounted fuel pumps. Mechanical pump and a tunnel rammed Clevland. Cheers.

Very cool video Andy. Really makes me want one of those carburetors. If my demon continues to piss me off that just might happen... 🏁

Great video Andy! Impressive quality on the parts and the one man assembly is outstanding. The only problem is that I want one of these carbs now!

⛽️🇺🇸I've been curious about them since I heard about them⛽️🇺🇸

Super interesting even for someone who has limited automotive skills

Impressive ❤❤ Great video 😊

Think of the fun you could have with the monoblade MI Carb on that old Carter flow bench. LOL

Thank you for video up here in il dirt tracks I don't know anyone running 1

Liked and Shared! Great stuff Andy!

Working on an AVS 2 right now with some of DV’s tricks.

This is an awesome video Andy. Very nice of Edelbrock to let you tour and hang out. Very impressed with the employees. Very knowledgeable for sure. I did not know much about these carburetors, but I would definitely think very hard about purchasing one. Thanks again Andy, nicely done. Have a great weekend.

Thanks - the VRS has been on my wish list. There are alot of well thought out features. Can't always pack everything in one video, but air bleeds & metering blocks are worth some discussion? Its sometimes hard to tell innovation from just needing to do something a little differently to observe intellectual property.

Since Vic Jr. passed, Ive been seeing YT comments saying the quality of Edelbrock's CYLINDER HEAD castings and components have gone to hell. CLEARLY, the same cannot be said for these carbs!

I can see why these carburetors cost $800.00

Andy, did you hear when, and "IF" they were going to release a Methanol "Friendly" version of that Carb? I'm starting to run out of my Barry Grant hoard, and they are getting harder to find for sale anymore. Thanks.

Seeing that old Carter flow tester was icing on the cake. This is a cool video!

Didn't Steve want his mug in the video?😆

Built for Americans by Americans!❤

I'd like to try one on my 500" RB Mopar.

So I picked one of those up a couple weeks ago. I’ve heard a lot about. Soon I’m gonna be doing real world testing on one of them VS a Holley back to back on the same vehicle and see what they really do. I’m a Holley guy but I’m open minded to see how it preforms back to back, with nothing but a carb swap.

I already bought a Holley, but it looks like it will be for sale!

👍

I have 750 cfm version for my 347 ,rpm air gap, 205cc intake 58cc chamber, 231 239 at 50 hydraulic rolla I'm building I think Casper might like 2 of those 750's to try There's a lot of features and adjustment in them carbs

Holy fudge packer batman i think i might need one of these for my 351w

Maybe I will be able to afford one when they start showing up at swapmeets

Hello Andy, great video. Thank you to you and the Edelbrock facility. Did they say what liquid they are using in the wet flow test? Do they record a/f ratio for several air flow rates WOT and other throttle settings?

Great video Andy! Did they say where those cast pieces come from? I would guess they come from the Edelbrock foundry/casting facility here in Hemet, California which is about 45 minutes from me.

Very interesting when are we gunna get a video of you testing one out on a video?

I like edelbrock products and it's always nice to see new parts engineered. Am I the only one who thinks the holley carburetor design is one of the poorer designs to copy?

VRS vs. your Doms vs. your old re worked 1850's .

They are definitely handmade

👍💪

Would be interested in a double barrel DMTR like injection throttle body. Wonder who these make.

Anything to do with Holley is bittersweet to me these days because of what they did to Hillborn. They had no GodDamned right... Also Edelbrock usedthere was a market to be local, Torrence/Rancho Dominguez CA I cant blame them for moving out of CA but shutting down an iconic entity like that is unforgivable. The sprint car isnt going anywhere so there is a market. This carb looks superior to any 4150 ive ever seen.

Want one , can't afford it !

Andy is always bringing us a great video, Thanks. I want one where do i buy?

Cool! :) I'm very much considering one of these 750s for my chevy 383, seems hard to find a 750 annular carb with better price and tuneability. Are those boosters what you would call "downleg annular" ? Can you tell us what the flow numbers on the 750 were?

It looks to me like Edalbrock came to the conclusion that their carburetors were junk, and then copied Holley. I'll take a Holley everytime. I have been working on and tuning Holley carbs for 50+ yearrs.

Andy, how many parts are interchangeable, with holley?

Going to rebuild the 1407 on my 454 1989 c30

Are you going to run a pair of these on Casper if they come out with the right size?

You going to be getting Casper a NEW set of Edelbrock carbs??

Lot of Quality Control built into their assemblies, insures a low return rate. Ounce of prevention... equals a pound of cure.

I haven't seen anything on dyno results vs other brands. Is there anything out there?

Any chance two of those can find their way back to Casper for independent testing? 😎

Andy, are those carbs die cast zinc, or aluminum? Cuz as far as Im concerned, aluminum carbs are junk! The weather eats em on the outside, ethanol eats em on the inside!

will they work on a tunnel ram set up??
