I'd say if you're running an otherwise generally stock setup get your Q-Jet rebuilt (unless important parts are missing or damaged) or get a new Q-Jet. Nothing wrong with a Holley but any time you change something there are always repercussions, and if you're not a carb guy in general, it's inviting problems to start "customizing".

If you don't mind worrying about fuel lines and linkage and choke and all of that, party on, but I always find it's easier to replace a square peg with a square peg.
