Default Holley 3 barrel


I just got a Holley 950 CFM 3 barrel- it is modified with Gears and some weird looking squirter mods??? I was told it needs a rebuild and there is a a thin crack on baseplate but a "Gasket"?? covers it so it shouldnt make a difference? I dont know ,But It was good price so I snagged it. Let me know what you think.....

The crack is not all the way thru . but it is on base plate near the one barrel on top , It's Very tiny- what should I do? Can i run it like that ? will it LEAK? the baseplate gasket DOES cover it. I need some pointers...

I think you should send it to Eric here on the Site for a rebuild. His work speaks for itself!

I did that to a Holley back in the '70s. The gas mileage of our 427 was immediately cut in half. Took it all off the next weekend and wrote it up to experience.
