Have to agree....

There is an old saying that goes " A Holley will win on race day, but a Carter will get you back home again". I have never been a fan of Holley carbs on a street driven car, the Carter/Edelbrock design is so much more simple and reliable, IMO.

A friend of mine said he pulled the Holleys off of his engine, put two Edelbrocks on it, and when he started the engine he sat back in a chair and watched it idle and run like a clock, and he said to himself "What have I done wrong, I didn't even have to adjust these things"!

No muss no fuss no bother.... JMHO
 
I've got five cars with Holleys, one with an Edelbrock, one with a Quadrajet, and the one under construction will have two Autolite two barrel carbs. Eventually the dragster will have two Autolite two barrels instead of the single Holley.
