If you have an auto I would definitely say Edelbrock. My only complaint about it is the power delivery due to the vacuum actuated bypass valve. Throttle response just off idle is equivalent to stock with the AC running and then you give just a tiny bit more throttle and it is enough that the bypass valve cracks open and suddenly you have a lot more. Makes everyday driving a little more annoying, especially if the roads aren't smooth and a bump changes your throttle position by half a millimeter. Add in an aftermarket clutch that you are going to need and it gets even worse. With a slushbox this won't be an issue.

Edelbrock really needs either an electronic bypass valve or a vacuum one with an adjustable spring so that you can tailor it to your needs.
