A few photos would be greatly appreciated also, for the carb challenged.

Sorry to have taken so long to post the pic.



In this picture I have put some paper clips pointing to where the idle restriction is. Please note: that Holley only uses one or the other location as a restriction, not both. Typically there is a brass slug that has a calibrated hole. This restriction controls your idle/transition circuit. You will need a number drill set and a pin vise. Measure the diameter of the hole before you start so you can go back...

drilling the jet bigger makes the circuit richer. Go in small steps...

Please note: that I only put pointers on one side of the block. The right hand side has the same restrictions.

As a side note: I have never seen this circuit too lean from Holley...
