You know, I'm about to that point. Just rip off that computer controlled crap and slap a manual baby on it. I don't know if Holley makes replacement carbs for that thing, but you're probably on the right track. Bummer is, i already spend $175 to have that thing rebuilt ... perhaps I can sell it to offset the cost ... hmmm ...
