Edelbrock carb tuning kit

[rficalora]

Sold my Edelbrock carb when I switched to a Holley but still have the tuning kit.  I used one set of metering rods & one set of step up springs from the kit but put the originals back in the carb & the ones from the kit back in the kit so the kit has all the sizes it came with.  Kit part number is 1479 & is for 600 CFM edelbrock.  Pics below show all the jet, metering rod, & step up spring sizes.

Look to be about $57+shipping on Jegs; let's say $35+shipping.

Sorry the pics are upside down; lost the originals when my hard drive crashed & haven't figured out how to get my own pictures back from Photobucket so I'm just linking to them there....

I won't have any need for it for about a year, and haven't bought my carb yet, but could go $25 + shipping.  Would this kit work for a 500 CFM?

I think this one is a bit big for your needs.
The 500cfm Edelbrock is either model #1403 or #1404.
Calibration Kit #1486 for is #1403 and #1404 includes:

-Metering Rods (Pair)
     .057 x .049
     .062 x .052
     .063 x .047
     .067 x .055
     .068 x .052
-Metering Jets (Pair)
     .083
     .089
     .092
     .098
-A complete set of step-up springs

You can see in the pics that ost of the Rods and Jets are on the high side.

I'd agree.  The one I have would be better for someone with a 600 CFM carb.
