I would think the engine is out of time or the spark plug wires are not installed correctly.

Carb is too lean, Common problem with Edelbrock. Buy a primary metering spring kit.

Dude, I had this exact same problem. 350 engine and the Edel 4b carb.

I was looking every where online for answer's and basically it could be anything from lack of fuel to timing to the advance on the carb. I tried everything, then i pulled off the valve covers and noticed one of the rocker arms wasn't moving. i turned the nut in the center one full turn and booooom it ran like a champ!!!!

I bet if u pull the covers that's your problem...

No. both small vac ports are not the same. so where does the Distributor vac line on go on a 351 Cleveland using an edelbrock carb?

With the edelbrock, use the vac line on the carb itself, It will be a small bore, 1/4 ( about ) vacuum line, and should be on the front of the carb.
