Paul, in answer to your question about Holley doing a restoration, I recently sent them a 4557 off an LS-6 that needed to be done concourse correct. According to our conversation, that was not a problem for them.

When I received the carb back (4 weeks late) it looked relatively correct. However, the choke cam was green and they didn't "save" my mint one. Likely used it for their own. Several screws were torx head and many of the plated items were plated incorrectly.

My biggest b!tch was when they took the small attached box with the fuel line, Y-block, studs and nuts, springs and cowl induction stud and plated everything cadmium! They also "lost" my cowl stud!!!! It took over a month to get an adjustment out of them.

Putting that all aside though, I thought it was done very nice for the cost I paid.
