My hot rod mechanic fell down a set of stairs and is real banged up. We had just ordered a Holley 875 to put on my car. Now I have nobody to do the job. Anyone out there who is qualified to do this job?

Is this something pretty much any mechanic could do?

Just about anyone can unbolt the old one and bolt on the new one...Setting it up is another thing, although not real difficult.

I have never heard of a Holley 875......Of course, I havent bought a Holley in 30 years or so

I stand corrected. It's an 870 - electric choke, vacuum secondaries.

unless something is terribly wonky - that carb will bolt on and run perfectly out of the box
It is a tad small for a 502
