    i have a Holley List-8007 i think its a 390 cfm? It needs to be rebuilt (it was sitting on a 225 buick for some time [@ junk yard]) it is missing the small link arm from the primary to the secondary (no big deal) the butterfly valve has slight rust (also no big deal) i just would like it rebuilt to stock/factory specks. i would like to find some place in california that rebuilds holleys @ a good price.

    There used to be a place on Orangethorpe in Fullerton or Anaheim ... many years ago though. I doubt they are still there.

    Carbs Unlimited is in Washington, or Pony Carburetors is in Las Cruces NM. Don't know much about Unlimited, except that they get a lot of coverage on the net. Pony specializes in the Ford OEM carbs, and I'm sure they would do an excellent job. Probably the most expensive though.

    I'm in the Temecula area.
    I would rebuild it myself but i think a pro. would do a better job in making it in like new condition, and it would have less prob. in the long run.

    A good friend of mine rebuilds carbs on the side, but I'm no where near Temecula. Sorry.

    Call Joe and Henrys Transmission shop in Escondido (if they are still in business) ask for Joe. He can tell you who is the best rebuilder of Holleys.

    Dang: That's where, or near, North Hollywood Carbuertor and Ignition is, or was. Practically lived there when I was a kid. Wonder if they changed names.
