I've heard that same sound from a cone filter being mounted in the engine compartment.
Could have also been a V2 or Powerdyne. Those are both pretty quite blowers.

my edelbrock 65mm makes a wacky sucking noise at part throttle, I thought it was a vacume leak at first

Could it have been gear timing? Or was it not that sound?
