Holley guru's- need advice

Cool...

Jump in with both feet. There's so much "black magic" sold about the difficulty of doing some car related things, auto trans as an example, that most get frightened.

Take it apart slowly, watch out for things you may not expect, squirter needles for one and lay the stuff out neatly like an exploded view if doing it for the first time. It will be easy. :thumbup:

Thanks for the encouragement. I've actually already had it apart. I was amazed easily it came apart, how clean it was and how easily and free everything moved. That's really why I figured rebuilding would be a good idea. If I decide to go with a 650dp, I may just sell this carb. One thing I did notice was the bowls have the older style ball bearing type valve at the accelerator pump instead of the newer style. They moved freely and seemed to seal well. So we'll see once I get everything together with the new parts. Thanks again. I'm sure I'll have more questions as I get into it more.
