The Edelbrock 1441 metering rods are precision-engineered replacement components designed for Edelbrock Performer Series and Thunder Series AVS carburetors.

Metering rods are a tunable component that allows you to fine-tune your carburetor's air-fuel mixture for optimal performance. The two-step design provides different fuel delivery rates based on throttle position and engine vacuum—the larger .062" diameter restricts fuel flow during cruise conditions for better economy, while the smaller .052" section allows increased fuel flow under acceleration and load. Changing metering rod sizes is one of the most common carburetor tuning adjustments for achieving the perfect air-fuel ratio for your specific engine combination.
