interesting. My father had a carb for is 289 rebuilt by them. it looks really good and performed great. however after sitting awhile it started to develope this issue where it would not shut off fuel flow and it would spill all over the engine. Running the carb dry would help stop this. Contacted PC and they where helpful but nothing really came of it. We did check the fuel pressure and it was high, so we put an old pump on that we had and it was closer to spec fuel pressure and its been fine since as far as I recall.
