AJ's guide to Transfer Port Synchronization

Had this problem with my neighbour’s holley. He’s very picky to how things are done.
Drove car over and it was running horrible. Kept trying to get idle up by adjusting idle stop screw and
Mixture screws. I tried to get him to pull carb but he refused. I mean flat out refused. So i was no help to him.

Until that day, i had nothing to do with holleys.

He loaded car and hauled it 80 miles to a speed shop that dialed it in.

As the story goes,the transfer ports can and will pull a ridiculous amount of fuel.
No amount of timing or idle mixture adjustment will work unless you get the transfer ports set to establish a baseline.

I am thankful for this site and threads just like this for the education im getting.
