They are 2 edelbrock 600's . When I first drove the car it would still run a bit when I would turn off engine. That stopped after more driving.

Sometimes you got to blow the carbon out and use better gas.
I need to put a scoop on my hood to fit the new SBC and I was hoping you could send me pic of your hood and scoop. Im finding it hard to visualize the car with scoops off a website.
