Guest AnthonyHansen Posted October 14, 2000 Share Posted October 14, 2000 Thanks for the responses when I said I was looking for Quadrajet information. I knew better, must have had brain lock!<P>My '64 Skylark had a Holly carburetor on it when I purchased it. It was originally a four barrel Rochester. <BR>I'd like to find the original carb and linkage, but I don't know how to spot the correct carb at a swap meet (or wherever).<BR>I'd like to do this in part to make the variable pitch torque converter functional again.<BR>I have the shop manual and it doesn't help enough. What book or manual would be a good one to buy?<BR>Tony Hansen corsaconvertible@yahoo.com <BR>'64 Buick Skylark, '65 Corvair Corsa Convertible,<BR>'75 Cosworth Vega, '55 Ford Thunderbird<BR>Shenandoah, Iowa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palbuick Posted October 14, 2000 Share Posted October 14, 2000 Hi Tony<P>In your shop manual it gives the part number of the carb, one number for auto trans and one number for the convt. trans, plus a picture of the carb.<P>palbuick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest AnthonyHansen Posted October 15, 2000 Share Posted October 15, 2000 Thanks for the response. I knew the part number, but I never seem to find it on any of the carbs I look at. Is the # actually on the carb somewhere, or it is only on the metal tags that are always missing from the carbs I find?<P> <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by palbuick:<BR><B>Hi Tony<P>In your shop manual it gives the part number of the carb, one number for auto trans and one number for the convt. trans, plus a picture of the carb.<P>palbuick</B><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
