Looks great. Holley added a ton of new features to this new line of carbs. There are so many new features I'm not going to bother trying to list them all. I like the AN fittings for the bowl and the dual bolt pattern. Adjustable throttle linkage is also cool as is the idle air bypass. Not sure about the bowl drain but I'll try it and see if I like it. The double sight glasses are a nice touch.
I'll get this carb on the dyno in the next few days and see how she compares to a Dominator. My guess is that this one will make pretty good power on my 514 motor. This is the biggest 4150 that I've ever seen. There is almost no venturi shape at all, it is almost a straight shot right down the throttle bores.
Holley is really making a great comeback, nice to see a true american company staying alive, The customer service is great too.

Have you dyno'd the motor with the older stock 950, be interesting to see the difference. Mick

IIRC, the new 950 has a 1.59" venturi, compared to the 1.56" of the new 850 version of the same carb. Yeah, that's big, especially for a downleg booster.
Can you provide a top-view shot of the venturi?

Andy, got an underside shot of the base? I'd like to see that dual bolt pattern Also I assume these still have the 1.750" throttle bore?

Andy, I see that its a 2 circuit carb... I wonder how it will be in a cruise aspect(most Holley's tend to run fat at cruise)
