Rochester VS. Edelbrock carb - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well, I've had an Edelbrock 1406 electric choke carb for the last three years. The problem is that the secondaries are leaking gas now. I have always had a hard time starting the Blazer after a long drive. If I turn it off and back on it's ok, but if I let it sit for 10-15 minutes it is hell to start it up again. When it does start, it runs rough and smells like gas. I am considering going with a Rochester. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem with the Edelbrock. How do you guys like the Rochester?
