I was wondering how do u adjust the air/fuel mixture on the edelbrock I know it has to do with the two screws on the front of the car I just wanna set the fuel side feels like to me the carb is dumping way to much fuel down into the motor could this be done or no looking to get somewhat better gas mileage

Check edelbrocks website they have a great tuning manual

what model do you have?

Apeiron

The screws on the front only set the idle mixture. Cruise and power mixtures are controlled by the rods and jets.

The manual has a detailed step-by-step procedure to tune the carb. Follow it exactly.

Dang that's the thing I don't have a manual on it I bought it used off a guy an rebuilt it looks like I'll have to watch the videos that they have up on YouTube or something

Whats the carb part number should be on the face on the left hand side a bit above and to the left of the idle screws. Get that i will get you a manual.

You can download the manual from the Edelbrock website.

to get it runnin in the ballpark, tighten up the screws all the wall and take them out one and a quarter turn should get it going for ya, but im in same ballpark bought a 1406 and not a clue how to set it up other than that...
