I have a 3 year old 600cfm edlebrock carb with offroad needles and springs on a well built 401. The problem is one side of the carb is running too rich and making the exhaust temps to high on it's cylinders. I can't adjust it any lower. The floats and vacum check out ok. The engine is just rebuilt and we can't get it running just right. Any suggustions would be great.
anyone have experience with this

I've been running my 600 for 2 years and have never noticed one side running richer than the other. Did you have your mixture screws on the front adjusted all the way in, back them out until it gets the highest possible idle and then bo back in a 1/4 turn or so? May need to clean your jets out?
