Looking for a 4 barrel carb
Does anyone have a ready to use 4 barrel carb for sale for a reasonable price? The engine that I bought has one from a chevy or something. It's a 67 motor, but I'll look at any year.
Thanks, Chris |

Post some pic's of your carb, the experts here can help you ID it before you spend money on a different carb. And unfortunatly I do not know of a source of inexpensive working carbs anymore. Even a NOS carb will need to have a few parts replaced to work with todays Gas.

Here's a pic of the carb that's on there. I'll have to research the application.

I bought the one off of eBay. It's really nice. I've been kind of just quickly looking it over since I got it. What should I be looking for to see if it's all good? I'm not enthused about cracking it open, but how do I determine when it was rebuilt and if it is suitable for today's fuel?
Thanks |

Unless it was rebuilt decades ago or they used an NOS rebuild kit IMO I would say bolt it on and fire her up.
IIRC all the newer overall kits are designed for corn juice use.
