when you call Holley, leave your number and they call you back. I had the same issue on hold for almost an hour. They will call you back.

That repair looks like a brass insert pressed in to repair the float adjuster. My problem is the fuel inlet threads are stripped out where the fuel line fitting mounts on the side. Worst thing is I just called chicago carb and they said the outboard bowls are not avalable anywhere anymore. I am stuck with either buying a new or used carb. I called holley and I am currently on hold. 40 min wait time estimate....
Insert is not pressed,hole is cut to size with an end mill and tapped 1/2 x 32 SAE.About the only thing you can do with the fuel inlet is JB weld in place if you don't ever plan removing it.The other alternative is using the front bowl off a dual inlet 4 barrel and plugging the accelerator pump passages,on the car you'll never see the difference.

The stripped out threads on the needle and seat hole are from using a non Holley brand aftermarket carb kit. If you use a/m kits, the needle and seat are 1 thread off on the thread pitch and you eventually end up with a stripped hole. If you are using one that has a brass jamb nut instead of the screw and skinny nut, you are toast. Only use Holley brand parts for you carbs. An exception may be to get them from QFT, Demon.
