On the other hand, one of the three sets of Jeg's jets isn't even sized consistently between the pair. The smaller one doesn't appear to have been machined all the way thru the hole, so I have zero faith they flow the same, much less that they are rated correctly as a Holley replacement. Don't think that I will be buying any more of those...

A quick update on additional jets I purchased: I was disappointed w/ the Jeg's jets I mentioned buying above, so I bought some additional jets from eBarf which were advertised as Holley jets and used the Holley part # in the description:

"2 PACK HOLLEY CARBURETOR MAIN JETS SIZE 81 122-81 1/4"-32 4150 4160 4500" (Bolding is mine to emphasize their use of Holley name and Holley part #)

The jets that arrived are NOT Holley jets; they appear to be the same QFT/Proform/Jeg's jets that haven't measured consistently, which I wanted to replace with "real" Holley jets.

The full order hasn't arrived, but if -- as I suspect -- they're all "non-Holley" jets, I'm going to be in touch w/ the vendor about it. down


Yep, and a customer almost hurt his 950+ BB Chevy dynoing one of my 1150's and when he needed just a bit more jet, he used the Jeg's and LOST power and went stupid lean only to find out the 100 Jeg's jet was WAY smaller that the Holley..............BLP to the front FCK the chinese copy cat crap..........I don't play craps.......... down
