I wouldn't want it. The metering blocks are really the heart of a Holley carb, I would be suspicious getting a totally redesigned metering block. Adjusting the main jets while the car is running, why? They don't affect idle very much, so doing it while running is of no benefit. I think somebody used to sell a kit very similar, made by Percy's or something. If you could adjust it from the cockpit, might be good for Pike's Peak race, where the altitude change is great. I would also rather have a plain orafice, then adjust flow with a needle and seat valve.
