Well there goes that idea. I put the Holley on and it snapped around the mounting holes. So, I have to wait til payday for a new carb. I plan on doing headers and cam. Should I go with a 650 Edelbrock?

Did you overtighten it? When you install a carburetor make sure you snug it down evenly in an X pattern. The bolts shouldn't go any tighter than 132 in lbs

My Holley 4160 called for no more then 80inch pounds...Not to correct vile other Holley's have different inch pounds...But Holley sells replacement parts...So don't give up on that Holley...If u do sell it on ebay...Pepole will still buy it
