It does say a lot, and you're right. Without a doubt, the Holley style carburetor is most prolific in racing and even perhaps street cars too.
The spread bores can be made to work well on milder street cars, though and you know yourself that many stock eliminator records have been made and broken with spread bore carburetors. So they CAN work.
Main reason I like the TQ is cause of the noise they make. LOL
