i was having problems with my Rochester 1 bbl and decided to go with a holley weber 5200 and so far have had nothing but headaches. First it's a real pain getting the linkage to work on my '59 chevy. Secondly the water heat plate and all the plumbing is a pain to hook up...still not convinced i need it, and i'm having a hard time tuning it. Maybe i got a bad rebuild but I can't get a good idle and it stumbles when i punch the throttle?
It might be worthwhile if it ever works but for the performance gain versus the work involved I might stick with a rebuilt Rochester 1bbl.
By the way my primary jet is a 135. Can anyone tell me what jet size they have on the primary and secondary?
