Got my engine running in my wagon today. I am running an Edelbrock 573 with 3 Holley 94's. I'm having a problem getting the engine to run. The primary carb is dumping so much fuel into the engine that it won't hardly run. What could cause this? I was thinking that the floats are set too high causing the carb to flood the engine. I have a fuel pressure regulator and the gauge reads around 2 psi which is what I read to run them at. What do you guys think?
