Holley and Brasswell developed the HP together. It it designed to be a ready-to-run mass produced race carb with the performance of a hand built race carb. $600 is cheap considering it often out-performs its competion which cost $1200-$1600.

Since I've never run one on a mild street engine, I would question the "ready-to-run" aspect for that application, but when dialed in, the part throttle to full throttle transition is second only to a VERY good custom carb.

Careful, nothing damages rings faster than black smoke (rich)coming out the pipes at idle.
