    :) Thanks everyone for the warm welcome and the support. As Maverick Man said, "they are on every fourms...to make sure bad rumors don't spread... right jay?".
    You are absolutely correct. With the internet these days and open forums it is really easy for something to get completely skewed away from what it really is. When you have worked for a company for many years and you believe in it, you want to do everything you can to keep the truth the truth.
    Again thanks for the welcome and all of the positive comments. It makes Me and Holley feel good to see we have customers out there like you Maverick crazy guys that support us through thick and thin. Let me know if you have any questions or need anything I will try to help if I can
    Thanks,
    Jay M :Handshake

    I traded a Holley carb for a sweet thermostat for my house unit.
    It came off a 454 in a Chevelle.

    I am a diehard Holley/Hooker fan.
    I just don't understand $400 carbs and $500 dollar headers.

    Thanks for your input though.

    Why don't you put in a good word for us in engineering and get some big tube headers made for us, as well as some 351w/c engine swap headers!
    That would go a long way for our community.
    Even though I don't like the prices, I still buy your stuff when I can afford it.
