I installed my new Holley carb yesterday and it didn't come with a throttle ball to hook the throttle cable to it. I called Holley and they said they don't ship them with new throttle balls. I have to get my own.
Damn!
If I would have known that, I would have kept the one on my old carb I sent back to Holley.
I went to my local part stores to find one. Nobody carried them.
Did I mention........Damn!!
I was going to order one from Jegs. I haven't received a catalog from them in a long time, so I figured this would be an easy way to get back on the mailing list.
They carry a Holley throttle ball kit with (4) balls and an Edelbrock part with just (1) throttle ball in it.
Not sure which one I'm going to order. I hate to order the Holley kit and end up with (4) extra un-needed parts.
I can't believe this stupid little part is holding me up.........
