Problems with my Holley!!!!

I put a Holley 600 on my 13b (racing beat intake) and the thing runs as fat as Oprah. I've got it jetted with 60's and my pump nozzle is a 25. I'm also running a Holley fuel pump and regulator which is set at 5psi. Any one know off hand how their Holleys tuned???? I've got access to all the Holley parts I could want I just need to know which ones dig? I'm about to beat my head in cause I don't really know all that much about carbs always been an EFI man myself. If you could please email me at chukruh@yahoo.com thanks.

Well you guys have been a big help.....I'm a little closer now I used some primary jets from a Nikki but I "machined" them to .040 cause the 60's are just too damn big my emotion tube nozzle has been down sized to a 21 and I squeezed my fuel down to 3psi. Hopefully I'll nail it one of these times and then the whole world will know the secret that no one will tell me.

Thanks for letting me do it the hard way maybe someday I can actually drive my 7 instead of dreaming about it.

Oh yeah I should throw this in here cause it made me laugh after my panic attack but running it with 60's for the primary jets turned my whole exhaust red hot in about 45 seconds. This was my first clue to it running to fat. The second was the puddle of raw gas it left on the ground just south of the tailpipe! Funny eh?
