Title: Quick carb question
Post by: Bulldog67 on September 12, 2010, 06:20:04 PM
Strippin the J20 of superfluous parts today and realised I have 2 carbs sittin in the bed, one is a holley 4 barrel and the other is a carter afb competition series: any ideas on which i should keep and which i should let go with the J20's 360?

and whilst im here, will the J20 headers have any issues fittin the J10?

the J20 also has some lovely twin exhausts that will be liberated for the J10 (u listenin out there MJS  :003: ) coz it has a near silent single exhaust at the moment, that wont do at all

actully the 401 has a holley, so its double question now, would the 401 be better suited to the carter?

Not an expert but I was under the impression that 4 barrel Holly was the thing to fit to a 360/401

you only sell a carb when you have no vehicles left that use them.
