I'm in Charlotte and you would think with all the race teams near by that I could find someone, but I guess I just don't know the right people. I'm going to keep asking around; I really don't want the car to sit.
I went through vocational school to become a mechanic during the transition from carbs to EFI. You will have a hard time finding someone under 40 that knows how to do anything with a carb unless they have race experience.
Holley is only a couple of gaskets, they are pretty easy to do. First, why do you think it needs rebuilt? Are the floats set? Do you know how to set the floats? What have you done with it so far? Can you adjust the idle mixture? What is it doing that makes you think it is bad? Does the car have points or has it been converted to electronic? On these old cars it is pretty simple. Adjust dwell (if it has points), make sure the plugs are good and gapped correctly, set the float level, set the idle mixture, and after all that, adjust the timing. Assuming wires, cap, rotor and such are good there is not much more to it.
