    You can go online to Holley at;

    http://www.holley.com/TechService/

    In there you can look up the carb model you have and get the install/tuning directions. That should help out a lot.

    My first response was,"get used to it" but that isn't very nice. I find most of the Holleys I have run to be rather high maintenance. I have one on my 390 and after about 8-9 months it started flooding over due to the needle valve. I pulled it out and cleaned it so i could get going again and ordered a new one that the local franchise nailed me $22 for.
    I had one on my 66 442 and had to put new gaskets in every time it sat for more than a month.
