I just installed a pair of professionally restored 625 cfm carbs on my Max Wedge. When I shut off the engine gas seeps across the tops of the accelerator pump squirters and across the top of each secondary venturi. The gas puddles 1/8" - 3/16" in the carb body under the counter weights for the secondaries. I'm running the Mopar / Carter race fuel pump. I thought maybe the 8 psi was too much for the floats to handle, because that's the problem I had with the Edelbrock 750 that was on my old 413. Last night I installed the fuel pressure regulator from the 413 and set it at 5.5 psi. Same problem when I shut off the engine after running it for just 10 minutes. I'm thinking that the float level is too high, but I'm reluctant to tear down 2 beautiful carbs on just a hunch. Has anyone had similar problems?
