Re[2]: Wait, Carter AFB repros need an adapter?

     Joe,
     
        So you had a squarebore manifold and bought a square bore 
     carb, and you still need an adapter?  I don't understand how 
     edelbrock can make a repro of a Carter AFB and have it be 
     smaller?  Larger?  I'm still not understanding something.  I need 
     a new carb on my 74.  Got a Holley 49xx from a guy here at work, 
     but should I get the AFB for originality or performance?

well, I just bought an edelbrock, and am gonna have to get an adapter for 
it, unfortuantly, it's seriously slowed down my scout project until I get 
more pictures of dead presidents friday

So wait, ALL Carter AFBs need an adapter plate whether square
bore or spreadbore maifolds are used?  What about the current AFB that I have   
on my 74 now?  Couldn't I just replace an AFB with another AFB, or the     
Edelbrock one? What is amiss here?
