Why indeed. The best reason is because you already have one
and want to save some money. Carter/Edelbrocks will also need
some tuning but it's usually easier to do and they don't leak like
Holleys. When the modifications get radical, modularity of the
Holley comes in handy.
>(How about an older Holley "Pro-jection" unit. Can it be used? Iv'e seen

A friend runs one on his Olds 266 stroker and likes it a lot.
He never could make a carb work at 2+ lateral g's. A huge
sprint car wing on a modified Lola chassis will do that .
