my girlfriend's K-5 had a holley 4 barrell double pumper on it (IT SUCKED), but i found a holley boat carb for free a couple days ago, the vent tubes are bent over at a 180 to wards the venturi's, does anyone know if this will work better?

Boat carbs are only a little different. The candy cane vents is only the start. The accell pump is smaller than a car. It will have spring loaded needle and seats and the good baffles. . you many have a small flat spot on transient from idle to mid power.

i can deal w/ a flat spot off idle, the old carb is a 750 on a stock 350, so it was flooding the engine
