Holley help needed...

I am in the process of converting my TBI 305 to a Holley 1460 vacuum sec, electric choke setup. My question is, what would be the proper size jets for this setup on the stock 305?

Do you mean model 4160?

The proper size is what gives the proper air/fuel mixture on your engine in your car. That's "tuning", so there isn't any set formula for the right "size". Start with what's in the carb, and adjust up or down from there.

There are a couple of assortment kits available to avoid buying a bunch of individual cards of pairs - the kits a cheaper than the same number of jets purchased individually. The 64-99 kit (two each of each jet size) is $40 from Summit.

Yes, I meant 4160. Someone with my engine/carb combo could put me right in tbe ball park. Also, I am having pretty sever linkage problems. TV cable's metal tab won't depress so I can adjust it. Anyone know how to fix this problem?
