    That appears to be an early Holley and I doubt that it has power valve blow out protection. I would strongly advise that you install the blow out kit during rebuild. And just out of curiosity what is the number on the metering block? A 650 is 4777.

    Yep, I had planned on it already. You're right. It's 4777 on the metering block.

    I think you probably mean Gearhead Enterprises, Bobby. They sell a lot of streetrod parts on ebay. Gear Vendors makes a really pricey overdrive unit for various vehicles.
