Don't believe the Edelbrock is offset. The only possible problem with the Offy is the location of the fan and gen./alt. ( in most cases, not really a problem )
I have an Offy on mine and didn't notice it until I tried to re-install a fan shroud. ( fan was hitting the shroud on the drivers side )
The situation was rectified when I fabricated a new fan mount with fan axle moved 7/8" to pass.side.
