Re: Carb Rebuilders?
Rebuilt Holley's are what you want to watch out for. Metering blocks get worped and bolts get stretched. Also, they are still sand casted carburetors so there is always a chance that there could be a small burr somewhere which makes it easier to clog. I've had a couple that I have rebuilt and they worked but I could never get them tuned as fine as I wanted. They also seemed to need constant tuning.
Running a Barry Grant speed demon with 4 corner idle adjustment, billet metering blocks and a billet base plate. Much more tunable. Have not had one problem with it.
Rebuilt Q-jets if they're done right can perform great w/o any problems.
Good luck.
