Holley Custom shop is the only place I will have their carbs done. Everybody else that I have seen and judged are way to light on the plating. After all they made them.

Eric at www.vintagemusclecarparts.comdoes Holleys along with other carbs. You might enjoy his take on Corvette owners. As of Monday September 19th 2022, I will again tentatively (<---NOTE THAT TERM!) begin accepting Corvette carburetors in for servicing from NEW clients--BUT!!!--it will be under VERY stringent conditions--read this thoroughly and carefully, and be forewarned I'm not sugar coating anything here. This will be blunt, direct, and to the point, but I would advise that you read the entire thing before jumping to any conclusions:
There will be NO FORMAL WARRANTY AT ALL on ANY new client Corvette carburetor work.
Read that again.
Now read it one more time.
Here's how this is going to work;
In the event there is an issue, if you can conduct yourself in an adult manner and bring the situation to my attention without being a stereotypical "Corvette Snob"/pompous ass, chances are I will likely be able to assist you. (Thankfully, I know this will apply to the vast majority)
However, should you choose to show your ass and display an attitude and act like a stereotypical "Corvette Snob", you'll promptly be told to take a walk.
July 19th should be "Drive Like Rockford Day". R.I.P. Jimmie.
