Holley carburetors have been around for decades and have proven to be  reliable and easy to setup. That being said it's always good to review the basics of how to coax the best performance  possible out of your Holley. Attached is a guide that covers the basics of how to tune a Holley. I thought might be an interesting read for you guys so sit back and take a look.

Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!
