Now that the 350 Holley guide is done, its time to clear the Holley parts out of the shed (
to make room for grey motor crash boxes). Not looking to make a fortune out of any of these bits, only reclaim the cash they owe me (yep, I could flog em on evilBay, but would rather give some early Holden guys a chance first).
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 6.5Hg 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, Im happy to change them out for whatever size you want for $10 (the 350 Holley guide gives a pretty good idea on jetting), provided American Autos has the size you want in stock.
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.
Happy to take any photos that you would like of the parts.
Parts can be picked up from western Sydney, or Ill post them at your cost.
Happy to swap carbs for crashboxs, crashbox parts or crashbox tools.
a) 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) Holley List number 7448 (date code 3061). Model 2300, 350CFM. #61 main metering jets, has sintered bronze inlet filter. Manual choke (choke vacuum port lead filled). Brass float. 30cc accelerator pump. $100.
c) 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.
d) 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
e) 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.
f) 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
g) Redline Performance adapter plate (2-barrel Holley to WW Stromberg). Part number 10-233. $20.
h) Redline Performance adapter plate (2-barrel Holley to Carter ThermoQuad and Rochester Quadrajet). Part number 10-555 $20.
i) Lynx adapter plate (2-barrel Holley to 4-barrel Holley and vice-versa). Part number KC234. $20.
Cheers,
