RE: holley or 4100?

By Barry R - 08/07/2003 4:24:42 PM; IP 192.55.140.2

I worked at Holley for several years. I have also worked at the company that made Carter/edelbrock style carbs. All this means is that I've got a reasonable handle on carb technology (can you still use those words together in the electronic age?).

The first respondant is pretty close. The 4100 is a decent piece, with a few limits on power production, mainly due to limits on fuel metering capacity.

The Holley will make more horsepower, and has far greater "tunability". The downside of the Holley lies in the vertical gasket surfaces between the main body, the metering block, and the float bowl. These have a tendency to "wick" fuel over a period of time.

The Demon is a Holley clone - - despite all the hype it share the identical strengths and weaknesses in terms of power and fuel handling. I can make the same power with either unit once tuned to the application.

This thread, so far...
