If you search through old posts, you will find many arguments for both sides. I think you will find that for those who can tune a carb properly there is no substitute for the Holley. They just perform better. However, there lots of guys that argue for the Quadrajunk and the AFB's. I have run and tryed to tune all three. My experience is that the Holley is better all the way around.......but that's just me. Of course when I say Holley I mean the 4150 and 4160 style, which is what most people think of when they talk Holleys. I have never worked on a BG, but I am sure they are top of the line as well. I mean all they really are is a dressed up Holley.

Well, I think that you answered your own question "the holley ran sweet". I personally like the holley, but you know what they say, " opinions are like assh-les". But hey try them all out and see for yourself, just don'nt break the bank doing it.

Very well said, the problem with the quadrjunks is the fuel bowl, that dont hold alot of gas in reserve and on any type of performance build this becomes a real problem..Before I modified the 402 in the 67 impala I had, it was bone stock with quess what? and I took it to a local eigth mile for a baseline, about halfway down the eighth Id run out of gas everytime in the same place, sputter, put,put, then it would pick it up again..I was so po'ed I tossed that carb right then and there borrowed a holley and never looked back..now if you could run 6 quadrajets at the same time it might be ok.
I think Id rather use a coffee can and a garden hose.. whats the cirgarette lighter air compressor for? it for just the right air/fuel ratio
