carb questions

What do you guys think of replacing a very tired Holley 94 with this? I did a rebuild a while back but it didn't really take.

Its my birthday, so I get to choose a big present. Is this worth it.

If I'm not mistaken, it's smaller than a 94 in terms of cfm rating. Not all good reviews on the HAMB, either, if that is essentially the Speedway carb (I think it is).

Check Vintage Speed for alternatives.

I believe that is the one Speedway Motors sells. I would buy from them before Ebay if you go that route. Not sure if the cfm rating is significantly lower, the Holley 94's don't flow much even if you have the larger ECG model with the heat choke. Around 150-170 cfm if I recall correctly. I've had good luck with the 2 rebuilt Holley 94 carbs I bought off Ebay for around $100 each, both are running fine on my truck for about a year now.

I would agree with "Older than me," Maybe try an re-build your 94...or even treat yourself to a newer one...maybe change out your current intake for a 2x2v and run a double 94 set up!...those look sweet

Just got off the phone with them. Very helpful and hooked me up with the right stuff: Holley 94 (car style so I can get air cleaner). One day I may go for the 2x2 setup....
