You don't need a dyno to tune carbs, just new sparkplugs, a road you use to run it through the gears, and a bunch of jets, squirters, pump cams, and patience. Getting one of the many books written about tuning, rebuilding and modifying holleys is a cheap way to learn a bunch of stuff you want to know.
