I see that someone knocked me back to a 3 star on the topic.

Guess maybe it is time to end the posts.

I didn't even know we could rate posts till you said that... added a 5 star (well deserved IMO), but looks like it didn't move the needle much. Just forget the haters. They can move on.

The info. is extremely valuable. Nice to have an expert that knows what they're talking about. Not just the hardware, but tuning as well. And maybe, (just maybe) it'll prevent a carb or 2 from getting hacked up by some "expert" that "thinks" they know how to make the carb "work better" on the engine.

Actually that might be a good topic... what NOT to do to a Holley. I'm sure you've seen/heard some wild stuff. Like drilling out jets to increase flow, removing the inlet filter, or removing the check ball on the secondary diaphragm.

Truth ! Every bit !

Everyone needs to learn.

I like to hear it from the side of the horse that talks...


Thanks Tom,
