Holley 600 CFM Four Barrel Street Carburetor
Part No: 0-80457S
In 1896, Bradford, Pennsylvania was like any other small town except it was home to the Holley family. It was during this time that George and Earl took an interest in motorcycle racing.
At nineteen years of age, George designed and built the Runabout. The Runabout, a three-wheeled vehicle powered by a single cylinder engine, could impressively reach speeds of 30 miles per hour.
This invention of the Runabout shifted the Holley brothers' interest from motorcycles to the emerging automotive industry. George and Earl Holley founded the Holley Motor Company and introduced the Motorette in 1903, which inspired Henry Ford to request Holley to produce a carburetor for his Model T. The carburetor, called the Iron Pot, quickly became an automotive success and became standard on Ford vehicles as well as the curved-dash Oldsmobile.

In 1994, Holley Carburetor underwent major changes. The original equipment division was sold to Borg-Warner, which led to the relocation of Holley Carburetor Replacement Parts' headquarters to Bowling Green, KY. At this time, the company's name became Holley Performance Products.
Over the next several years the Holley Carburetor name was placed on Hirel Technologies Fuel Injection, Weiand Automotive Industries, Lunati, Hooker Headers, Flowtech Exhaust, Earl's Performance Plumbing, and NOS. These acquisitions have allowed customers to purchase any performance product, all made with the Holley Carburetor approach to quality.
