We have a guy here in San Diego that is truly a master carburetor rebuilder. He serviced every race car that ran at the now closed Cajon Speeway. He still says 50% of his rebuilds are new out-of-the-box carbs.There's something to be said of correct setup.Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

   Dear Marshall and Bill,
                  I was ignorant of the Holley 750 double pumper.  I had
   factory off-the-shelf Holleys that were disappointing for years.  I
   then had custom built Holley 4150s  750 with vacuum secondaries for
   years.  They were a great leap forward.  Finally, I succumbed to the
   reputation and temptation of a custom built Holley 750 double pumper.
   It was phenomenally better.  I now worship at the Holley double pumper
   temple.  I wholeheartedly agree with you both.
