i have the 1406 edelbrock and i like it. Its a good street carb. I wouldn't get it for maxium power though. I think the others might offer more power but the edelbrock is reliable and needs no tuning.

I mostly have experience with Holley and Edlebrock but of the 2 would have to go with the performer series.
currently using a 1405, it runs a little richer than the electric choke model but my 400 seems to like it.
the thunder series may be worth a try if your a serious off roader

I've had good experience with the Holley 600cfm vacuum secondary. It's been easy to set up, performs well, has been amazingly dependable, and very easy to work on. I've got nothing bad to say about it.

edelbrock performer (1405 or 1406) or if you wanna spend a little more (not much), those demon carbs look good. later
