I was wondering is there anything I need for a holley 80457 (4160) to put it on my car. I know I had to buy a bracket with my edelbrock, but I think the holley comes with everything. I'm going to replace my fuel tank and carb this week. I havegoty alot of rust in my old tank causing alot of carb trouble. Any pics or pointers for putting the holley on would be great

thanks
Brad

I've never bought one new. But I am pretty sure youe need the fuel line if you buy center floats(better). And at least a tooth brush. You want your teeth clean if your going to have a grin all the time now.

When I changed from an Edelbrock #1411 to a Speed Demon 750VE, all I needed was a fuel line, and the fittings from the fuel line NPT to AN hoses. Also Kickdown linkage and throttle wire had to be modified because the linkage wasn't in the exact same spot. But no biggie.
