Chris,
You're a prince amoung men. I've got a '66 tri-power with no power accessories. Because I've "upgraded" to 4 wheel disks I decided I had to go to an aftermarket power setup. (UPS delivered it today), but I hadn't paid attention on where the vacuum hose went on PB Tri-powers. Checked your posting and there, in the last picture, was the answer for the question I hadn't even asked yet. Do you also moonlight for the Psychic Hotline? |

I have 2 65 Tri Powers and 1 66 Tri Power, they are not all complete. I have a 65 that has the original screen-foam type air cleaner. I also have a big car dual snorkel air cleaner that fits on a 65 Tri Power. I have a Chevy carb that looks similar to a 65 center carb. I can show you how to Identify a Pontiac center carb from a Chevy carb. If you are interested I can send some pictures.

I love the idea of technical articles and a repository of Pontiac or general Car knowledge which many people here have lots of!

I have a bunch of "dirty pictures" of my tripower carbs before & during the rebuild including pictures of each carb from all angles sitting on the bench. If anyone is interested I can email them but there's too many to post here.
Chris's pictures of the complete setup on the manifold is about as nice as you can ask for. I have included a couple pictures here of the carbs during disassembly showing how incredibly simple the Rochester 2bbl carbs are inside. I'm no engineer but I had no trouble rebuilding them using a good quality rebuild kit (from CarbKing) and they actually worked when I put them on my new motor .http://kurtspontiac.homestead.com/TimSimpson66GTO.html |

Unfortunately, the files are too big but will try to trim them down so I can post them.

Thanks for the pics guys. It looks like the vacuum advance goes to the front of the rear carb. Is this correct for a 65?
Thanks Pete |
