 Super Tuning and Modifying Holley Carburetors September 25, 2008
S-a Design's "Holley Carburetors" is great for part numbers and identification. It also is very helpful in the identifying the function of the parts. As far as 'super tuning and modifying', this book is of little or no help. I was unfortunately looking for assistance and found no help here!

Excellent overview of the Holley carbs and the inner workings as well as tuning of the Holley. Would liked to have read more on the performance side.

How to tune a Holley. June 3, 2006
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book includes information on how to select a carb, how each metering system works, mileage, street, race, off-road, marine and forced induction modifications and copious part numbers. The correct process is described to fix any problem, but most final numbers(70 or 72 main jet? 35 or 37 pump squirter? Etc) are determined by road or strip testing. Also includes exploded diagrams and a 54 picture teardown and reassembly of the 4150/4160.
I had no idea how many tuning possibilities there were on a Holley. I've learned that it is likely to take a fair amount of work to get a double pumper to run smoothly, get decent gas mileage, and produce power on the street. However it is possible and this book tells you how. Expect to invest in a jet kit, accelerator pump kit, and some drilling if you put a double pumper on your street car.

While this book is very good and should be in every Holley tuners library, I would like to see more theory or perhaps something such as "if you make the idle air bleeds smaller then the power curve ...." Would be nice
 No help here for a rebuild. October 9, 2005

Look elsewere for a guide to help you rebuild. I guess this book would be useful if you are a racer or something, but not for the DIY engine tinker-er.
