FE-FC Holden Discussion Forum

Time to make room for the next project  :oops:  :lol:
• All carbs have been stripped down, cleaned and had a kit put through them. Cleaning has been done with petrol and thinners, but not acid or gritblasting :shock: - some black discolouration remains on carbs but all passages clear (typical home overhaul).
• All bench settings have been made, though each carb will need the following set on your engine:
 a) The fuel float level,
 b) The idle speed and mixture, and
 c) The fast idle speed.
• All carbs have the original 0.031” pump discharge nozzles, original “orange” pump cams and 6.5”Hg power valves.
• Jets, accelerator pump size, inlet filter, choke type and float type varies with each carburettor and is listed below.
• If you want different jets, I’m happy to change them out for whatever size you want for (can jet down from #50 to #99 - the 350 Holley guide gives a pretty good idea on jetting for red motors).
• None of the carbs has venturi restrictors in place – happy to include them in your parcel for $6 a pair (you can have the joy of epoxying them in yourself), provided American Autos has a pair in stock.
• Note that whilst all care has been taken in kitting these carbs, they come at the buyers risk – check them carefully and assure yourself they are OK before using them. This particularly applies to the choke plate and throttle plate screws - if I replaced the screws I restaked them, if I didn't replace the screws I have not touched them.

a) 350 Holley List number 7448 (date code 2380). Model 2300, 350CFM. #61 main metering jets, no sintered bronze inlet filter. Manual choke (choke vacuum port lead filled). Brass float. 30cc accelerator pump. $100.

b) 350 Holley List number 7448 (date code 0212). Model 2300, 350CFM. #60 main metering jets, no sintered bronze inlet filter. Manual choke (choke vacuum port lead filled). Duracon float. 30cc accelerator pump. $100.

c) 350 Holley List number 1192 (date code 2380). Model 2300, 350CFM. Has had List 4412 (500CFM race carb) metering block added - PVCR is 1/16” compared to original 0.056”, air bleeds to main well in original 7448 has a single ~11/128” hole at the top of the well and small hole at base of well whilst 4412 has no lower hole, multiple mid-well holes and a top hole restricted to ~0.9mm – the 4412 block is likely to have better main metering fuel control than the original 7448). #55 main metering jets, no sintered bronze inlet filter. Manual choke (choke vacuum port lead filled). 50cc accelerator pump. $100

d) 375 Holley List number 4643-1 (date code 1686). Model 2300, 375CFM. #56 main metering jets, no sintered bronze inlet filter. No choke on this carb – plate and rod still exist, and I can install either a manual or electric choke onto it at your cost if desired (or I can lead-fill the choke vacuum port). Nitrophyl float. 30cc accelerator pump. $100.

e) Lynx cast alloy inlet manifold – long, smooth runners. For clearance to the inner guards, the distance from the cylinder head flange to the outer edge of the manifold is 9 5/16”. With a 350 Holley carb installed, the distance from the cylinder head flange to the throttle lever is 11 3/8”. $140


f) Redline Performance adapter plate (2-barrel Holley to WW Stromberg). Part number 10-233. $20.

g) Redline Performance adapter plate (2-barrel Holley to Carter ThermoQuad and Rochester Quadrajet). Part number 10-555 $20.

h) Lynx adapter plate (2-barrel Holley to 4-barrel Holley and vice-versa). Part number KC234. $20.

• Floor shifters have all been disassembled, cleaned in kero, coated in machine oil and reassembled.
•Wave washers replaced and/or joints shimmed to ensure no slop.
• Condition of chrome varies - most are pretty serviceable, though almost all have the odd blemish.

I) Impala Aussie 4-speed H-pattern (model 713) floor shifter. $100
j) Thomas Aussie 3-speed H-pattern. $100
k) Impala Aussie 3-speed inline pattern (model 708). $100
l) Impala red motor crashbox inline pattern (model 701). $100 (two to choose from).
m) Speco Thomas red motor crashbox H-pattern. $100
n) Impala Aussie 3-speed H-pattern (model 712). $100 (two to choose from).

• Happy to take any photos that you would like of the parts.
• Parts can be picked up from western Sydney, or I’ll post them at your cost.
• Happy to swap/part trade for almost anything to do with Norman superchargers or grey motor fuel injection gear.

Cheers,
Harv.
