The carb rebuild kit came in today for my carb. I am rebuilding the carb that came on the original engine (not the one off the spare engine I got). Main reason being that the original carb was a 4 barrel WCFB but the other one was a two barrel off a Nash 320 engine. More power, better economy, etc...
I bought it from The Carburetor Shop whereas I bought my 400 4GC one from Chicago Carb. The kit seems very complete, though no instructions were included (fortunately Chicago Carb has them for free), of course the Service Manual has instructions but they can be a bit confusing for people not already familiar with every carburetor term. It was also supplied with traditional needle valves instead of the newer style
Daytona valves, though this will not exactly be a high performance vehicle so I doubt the difference will be very noticeable.
Even getting the thing off the manifold was quite a chore and I document the process
here.
