Holley Carburetors Dave Emanuel 9781884089282 Books Reviews
- It seems as though the author took a lot of time and effort to write a really basic book. I didn't find much in modifying my carb. Most of it was information that is free if you call Holley tech support. The only modifications I found tell you it's strictly for a race vehicle, NOT a street rod. I was disappointed but if you don't want to go through the hassle of calling Holley and waiting a long time for tech support, then I guess it's OK.
- This book gave me a complete understanding about carburetor function! Some give it bad reviews because they expect like so many others for it to be an "instruction manual" for their specific application. It is exactly what the title says and is not contradictory (as i have also seen in other reviews.) you need to read it to understand why a carburetor works the way it works! Very satisfied!
- Good book, doesn't cover as much as hoped. Had to get another book from another author for what I was looking for. overall good
- Informative and to the point, though the first chapter on the history of carburetors is not really required for a technical book. Found the theory of operation especially helpful as a foundation for the specific operation of Holley carbs- or any for that matter. Very easy to read and understand. It's not a have-it-on-the-fender book like a Chilton's, but if you're looking for a good primer on how your Holley operates before tearing into it- it's worth the money. Will likely pay for itself in avoiding unnecessary upgrades. Also sections for race and high performance tuning. Lot's of good, sensible advice from someone that's been doing carb tuning for a long time and can transfer the knowledge through clear writing and illustrations.
- Just adding to the library of automotive repair manuals. Great way to remind us of the old and help better prepare us of the new. The field of automotive is always changing. I say you can never go wrong with any of these Manuals or any DVDs
- Book is large like repair manual so it is easy to read and follow along in the shop. Photos are black and white but are very clear. Info on blower carb modification is very accurate and explained in detail. I would recomend to anyone who is trying to tune a holley!!!!
- I know the author and know that he knows Holleys (and a lot more). I had a carb he gave me to use on a bracket racer. He'd set it up so I didn't have to do anything but run it. Book describes all the functions and features of most of the Holley line and tells the reader how to tune and modify them for maximum performance.
- Excellent Holley Carburetor manual. Extensively illustrated and accompanied by very clear, useful diagrams and descriptions. I have several other books on Holleys, but this one is the best!
