I just put on a new holley 750 on a maverick which had the eldebrock performer, ford 302 crate motor. was deadon perfect besides having to adjust idle right outta the box.

Edelbrock carbs are very good though...not knocking them, just making things clear on the holleys.
So its possible the Holley my friend had on his pickup was an older model then. He spoke of having to constantly keep it in tune. If its truly almost a toss up because of the street car nature of the build, I guess I'll go on price and worry about the intricate details when I am ready to squeeze the power out of it. I'd like to get it running and enjoy it for a bit despite the shape off the body. Especially the way the chassis is setup.
