Actually you can use any size metering rods and use piRsquare to determine primary jet size, just have an 8-10 size difference between the small and large diameters on the metering rods.
This is great information from everybody. I'm reading through it trying to figure out what to do with my set up. I have a new 467 stroker with the Edelbrock P65 manifold and two 600 cfm edelbrock carburetors on it. It runs OK, but I'm having a hard time getting it dialed in for optimal performance. It sounds like I need to go more lean than stock settings since I'm running two carburetors. Is that generally correct?

And as far as the original question goes, I opted for the Edelbrock P65 because of the dual plane design and I was looking for more low end torque than high RPMs. I wish it looked more factory original but it is what it is.

Thanks in advance.
