Kent, I sent a carb to them about 15 years ago, maybe more or less. It was the factory Quadrajet off of my 1968 427/390 Corvette. The fuel inlet was stripped, so they helicoiled it. The drilled out the factory bushing and installed brass. The carb was suppose to have been flowed tested. When I installed it, it ran perfect. No problems. Then I let the car sit. Now it's back in a box. But other than that, I did not have any problems. I understand that Holley does the same thing at their facility in Bowling Green Ky. You decide. Holley has a warehouse of just bins of Carb parts that they use to rebuild carbs.
