If you need an easy to use and inexpensive carb tuning indicator, an
oxygen sensor in the exhaust pipe is a very helpful accessory.

My Holley carb tuning page has information on how to purchase and
install the sensor:

It is quite likely that Holley will send the carb to you rich, to err on
the safe side...

I checked out the Holley site, and geez...that's some worked over carb! 
It's apparent that Holley got tired of Barry Grant and all the other
tuners stealing their business, so they decided to do the mods
themselves!
