That car didn't come with a Carter carb, and it came with a stove pipe heated intake system, end of story, get over it. The stove pipe was not an option, all cars except Air Grabber cars got it. Didn't you say it had a Edelbrock carb on it now? So, why all of the back and forth when it doesn't even have a Carter carb on it to start with?
I guess because I'm trying to understand how the Carter came to be installed on my car. There's a story behind that and I'd like to know what it is.
there are certain things we will never know.
could have been installed by dealer early in it's life
could have been something found in a junkyard
could have been someone thinking the Holley on it was wrong so they went out to try find what they thought was the "correct" Carter
Be in this long enough and you'll see all kinds of weird stuff
