I just talked to a guy at a carb shop that told me that I cannot use a AFB float, or a newer Carterbrock float, and that there were 4 different original AVS floats from his memory, but wouldn't tell me which one I needed unless I bought a $200 rebuild kit from him that included them.



I have a holley rebuilt 6125 at home. Runs fine. I'll check the float in it. I'm pretty sure its that Napa 2-426.

Std rebuilt AVS kit w/o floats is like $40-$50.

Some carb guys are p@#$ks. One in MO once wouldn't sell me anything until I gave him some statement that carb was for off road application or some stupid stuff. Another rebuilt a holley for me and when I asked for the old parts, they tore the gaskets, like it was illigal to reuse them.

See, I wouldn't know how to change the settings on it. Still don't know enough about carbs. ops:

Seriously, is there a part # or something so if I ordered them from someone I'd know I have the right part?



If you don't know how to adjust float, this question seems moot.

I think if you asked here in Q and A you could learn, IF you are willing??

Do you have a 69-71 Factory manual? Someone here may be able to send you a scan of the carb section.
