Although there is plenty of critzism of Rochester Carbs, on my OFFY intake I use a pair of "B"'s I bought some time ago on Ebay at a much cheaper price then NAPA. I did however rebuild them.

For probably a lot less money you can get a pair of new Carter/Webers or Holley/Webbers from Langdon's. While they are not period correct they are new technology vs worn out. A big plus, Tom's linkage is bullit proof and works like butta. Langdon's Stovebolt should be linked to this site, check it out.

Ditto on the Carter/Webers! I'm running them on my 60-235 in a 54 pickup. They were flawless right out of the box. I've got a photo log of the install in my Webshots "Tips and Tricks."

Have put 3500 miles on them since I installed without so much as a hiccup. Great bang for the buck!

I agree with Jim! I had a pair of those Carter-Webbers from Tom and they proved to be the most trouble-free carbs I ever used. I barely had to touch them from out of the box. I used them on a 181 Mercruiser and that sucker started easily, no matter how hot or cold, was strong throughout the rpm range and got excellent mileage.


Lord, let me live long enough to do all the projects I have planned!
