edlebrock carburator question

[stroked85olds]

i have a 750 edle carb. i don;t think i am getting enough fuel, horrible bog when mashing the gas. do not have the jet kit or metering rod kit, and replace carb soon. my question is can i remove the metering rods with out blowing anything up. because i have removed em and it seems to run very good. any info would help.

From all the Edelbrock carbs i have seen on the dyno they all are on the rich side. You need to get the kit and tune it up.

the car wants that much fuel ???? why is it so lean . ?????

i thought it was lean, could have been wrong. pulled the motor anywho, and using a holley on the new motor. it had a bad bog the i couldn;t get rid of, with more or less fuel. also i wasn;t gaining mph with better air, or losing with bad air, so i figured i need more fuel in the better air, but don;t wanna buy the tune kit because it was just a temporary carb.
