      Holley jets are rated by the flow not the bore size. It’s very important not to cause screw driver marks on any jet as it upsets the flow FYI.

    The weight difference is the Holley is made of a zinc alloy called Zamak (trade name, many variants), the clone is an aluminum alloy. Many carbs are. Hence why many suffer from zinc pest to varying degree, depending on the specific alloy. Its used due to its very high suitability for die casting. We have better aluminum alloys now that have displaced Zamak some, but its still widely used. Yes, Zamak contains aluminum as one of the alloying elements, and is very often confused with aluminum, and sometimes referred to as aluminum by manufacturers to avoid calling it "pot metal" (aka Zamak), but its primary element is Zinc, hence the weight difference. Also, the number difference on jet sizes are metric vs imperial.

    I got some Chinese made motorcraft 2150 copy off Amazon for $100 or so because my original carbs throttle was hanging open slightly no matter how much I cleaned it and it would cause it to idle too high. Looked over it made sure all the screws were tight and adjusted everything to where it needed to be. A few months later still runs perfect, no issues starts right up with one pump every time. This was more so a temporary fix while I save up to get a nice 4 barrel intake and carb. But for now it’s doing me really well.

    Ordered me a Remaned carburetor off of rock auto for my Jeep cj6 with a 2100 Motorcraft. Cost me near $300 but we couldn't ever get it to run worth a crap on a Low mile 304 engine. 45k Shoddy rebuild from Autoline products in Canada. Wore out shafts and a warped flange. No help from Autoline or Rock auto. Bought a 70$ 2150 knockoff from Amazon. Cleaned it and adjusted the screws and drove for 2 hrs that night. Ive been thinking of going to a 2300 500cfm or even a smaller 4bbl since I street drive it for the most part. I'll probably try of these before I dump $300 again on something that isn't worth a Sht.

They don't don't know if you'll be running straight gas, 10% ethanol, 15% ethanol...good job providing some tunability. Good upgrade over the holley cork gaskets on the mixture screws.

When Borg Warner buys them they buy them from China, of course there's more testing and oversight but most likely that's the reality.

If someone buys a knock off expectiing to get a copy of whatever, I’d be under the assumption that they’d expect to have an understanding of what they’re receiving. Capable of running or not, with this carb, you’re not getting what’s expected. I’m sure at some point when I have the (time) we’ll show these on an engine and show the data. The (understanding) sets the expectation of performance. One has to come first! Maybe one time I’ll start with the result and go back and get the reasons why in a second video. Stating with the understanding at least points me in the direction of what’s going to happen when we do run it and I won’t run into an over or under fueling situation and hurt a good engine. I know with this one, I’m going to have to watch part throttle AFR closely and for sure transition AFR with that smaller PVCR. Don’t think this one is bad enough to kill some timing, but I’m guessing it might. Wouldn’t have known that without the knowledge first! All I’m lacking now is time……. 🤘

    The difference in jet sizes and other restriction sizes is neither here nor there. A 600cfm carb can have any number of combinations of restrictions depending on the exact engine and chassis package.
    Even two identical cars but one has header pipes and a different intake manifold could require complete different jets, pvcr, accel pump, power valve and air bleeds, but both have 600cfm 1850s.
    You have to tune them for what you have. Nice of them to give you some extra jets or air bleeds.

    As an European driving an american truck I stick to OEM parts as much as I can. In Germany it is very hard to keep US cars running, because those are very exotic cars over here. For example you have to take them to one of the very rare specialized workshops for repairs because normal shops do not touch US cars. It costs way more money too, 180 dollars per working hour at the shop is very normal, and you have very limited access to used parts. Every two years big discussions with the dudes from the technical inspection agencies who never saw an US car if the car is roadworthy or not. My Truck is halfway illegal due to the fact that spare parts for the truck do not have an european proofmark on it. If the cops stop you and decide that your Walker standard replacement exhaust has no proof mark and therefore it is illegal, your journey comes to a sqeeking halt. It gets towed away for a new technical inspection and a juicy bill for the whole shabang. And you can lose your drivers license for that too. For a tire shop it is somewhat illegal to bolt on bolt centered wheels because the standard is hub centered wheels. The list goes on and on. Pulling the chinese wildcard is no option at all...

    I've never been happy with the low end, off the line performance of Holley carbs. Yes they do perform well in the upper rpm range and on race applications but I would always prefer a Quardrajet carb for an everyday street vehicle. The smaller primary style just feels better off the line and when the large secondary open when you mash it you know something happened.
    I also don't care for the Chinese knockoff carbs. There is always something strange in their thinking about how to meeter fuel.

Surprisingly, it works better than the original ever did even when the mower was new. Mower fired on first pull and everything fit just like the original. And like your example, they included extra parts, gaskets, screws, even an air filter. and spark plug. Faced with buying a new mower or fixing the old one, the choice was easy. Less than $25 vs several hundred.

Run it on an engine at least after you go through it like new Holley requires. Sure we are all sick of Chinockoffs, but in the current market where inflation and American companies are charging far way to F'ing much for products trying to maximize their profits to the max and at the same time crappy support and no available product making you wait months. I have waited 5 months for my CompCams camshaft which I switched from Lunati since they could not give me a delivery date which was waiting months for, so I switched to Comp to only get screwed again. The rocker arms are still back ordered until Sep 28 when I ordered them as "in stock" on April 12th.

Now, as of the writing of this comment, the same carb is $574 from the Holley site (subject to change at any moment) and the 1850's aren't too far behind that.

    The jet sizes are going to be metric. So will the air bleeds and every other dimension. All the passages and slots are going to be sized promotional to each other. You can't really compare component dimensions apples to apples. This looks like a well thought out carburetor and the fact they provide multiple jets is great. Also their castings look very good and a bunch of features are better. The transfer tube, sight glass, and mixture screw seals come to mind. Feels a lot like you're looking for things to nit pick.
    It's laughable being upset about a knock off of a carburetor design that old and it's not like holley is a mom and pop speed shop struggling to get by.

    I got one and it sucked the accelerator pump didn’t work and after I fixed that it ideled ok ran ok light throttle but give it a some heavy throttle and gust shut down. I swaped out the Bowles on to a good old Holley body I had and it runs great with that carb body and the bowls off that pic of junk.
