holleys are great. i have one. but they are one mFFer when it comes to tuning them. ive heard that edelbrock makes a nice carb, but ive heard demon has some really nice ones. if you want ease, dont get a holley.

They are not hard to tune if you understand how a carb works. There are alot different adjustments and most people just mess them up. Edelbrock carbs are OK if you don't want all out performance and a just a bolt on and go type carb. Demon/Barry Grant is just what Quik said, same design as a Holley but better production and even more tunabilty.

yeah, thats what i meant. but like the edelbrock doesnt have much to screw with. i love my holley, but for someone, like you said, who doesnt know how to tune, they suck.
