I contacted Jeff (Shaker455) last week to rebuild and set up my Holley 650DP. He was very pleasant to communicate with, and had a long discussion with me over the phone to get a better idea of the car, and recommend a setup that will work for my combination. He sounded very knowledgeable both with Holleys and Pontiacs, so I felt comfortable that he will steer me in the right direction. He then asked me to come up to his place so he can get a firsthand look at the car.
I did so last night, and he invited me into his house like we were lifelong friends:) . Very kind and knowledgeable person. He spent time explaining his thought process and methods, and then asked to take a look at the present setup of the car with my spare 600 carb to get an idea and a baseline. Next thing I know, he was tearing into my distributor since the timing was totally off and set it to where it was supposed to be. Since my car is a biotch and hates to be messed with, it fought him the entire time, but he never gave up:p . Then we took the car for a test drive, and what a difference :D I can't wait till he works on my carb, and we dial that in:D
Needless to say, I am very happy and ecstatic with my experience with him. He spent way more time than any family man should spend with a newb like me :) I recommend him to anyone looking for carb work :)
