    Welcome to the board. Nice Maverick and i love the Comet taillights on the Maverick as it's sorta like my Comet with a Maverick grill and hood. Nice to dare to be different eh.(y):rofl:

    i say stay with the holey. you will hear people say holey or edelbrock. my experience has been that every car that ive played with (friends cars) they always were faster with a holey. ive played with and tuned edelbrocks trying to get more power out of them then bolt on a holey and instantly the car picks up on performance.
