My carb is a mere shell of its former self. I am deployed, so can't actually look at what is in my car. From the parts manual on this site, it looks incompatible. Is it??

mine is a 5567 - Constellation with the original 352

ebay listing is incorrect carb for this car.

Boooooo, but thanks. I figured as much, but was hoping!!

also i bought my carb from this guy (rochester 4gc,not carter)...same car as yours...and wasn't impressed by the interals. the floats were not straight and the kit he used was crap. i replaced it with a Daytona kit i had. and fixed all his mess ups...and got a partial refund. this is all detailed in my blog somewhere. if i could search by page number it wouldn't be so hard to find the page it is on. i'm too lazy and there are 130 pages.

Good to know. I was just going to send mine off as a core, it is quite rough.., I've come close to using Daytona for my 526, just didn't pull the trigger before I left. I have heard good things.

I've read those 130 pages. Some several times!

hopefully it was some help, God only knows how many pages that thing will have before it is done. daytona is the place to go Kev Arizona just did one there and posted about it. turned out good iirc. i just used there kit and rebuilt myself. and the only reason i bought from the guy on ebay was it was half daytona's price, but you get what you pay for.

Kev any way to put in a "skip to page number" box? skipping by 4 over and over takes forever to get to where i want.

Quote:Hank,

That would be a good feature but......you'd really need to know the page you're looking for to make good use of it. I too have a lot of pages in my Blog while Kev has even more in his!

i've been through them enough i know the page numbers...its just a pita to get there. what i do at home is book mark them. i should do that up here at work i guess.
