Edelbrock(Carter) question

I recently bought, overhauled and put a used carter 625 carb on my 351w. I ran the numbers and found out this is a EGR carb. My engine is a non-EGR engine. When a carb is tuned to a engine with a EGR installed on it, is it jetted the same, richer or leaner than a non-EGR engine? I am wondering this as the engine seems to run a little richer. Do I need to look at changing the metering rods?
P.S. Love this carb! Much smoother than the 4V holley that was on it.

As Egr Valves Lean out the mixture you would need to lean out the carb if it is not present. Metering valves & jets.
