Many truck holleys had the idle screws in the rear metering block.




And what would be the reason for that

Greg, thats an 800 DP. Most likely the jetting is 70-71 F/85 R, 50cc pump out back.




The Holley 8156 used that linkage and it was a 750.

The metering blocks should have the list # on the top. If you could take a pic of that # we can read what it says.

What are the chances of it being a 8156 but you could be right, I'm bettin its a 4780 myself, but i've been wrong before.

First thanks for the helpful info Here are some #'s the PV block has 7047 then 47812 on top and the rear 1 has 1116t with a deep 3 underneath. The base has 12R-4770B and 4895. The butterflies are 172's. Can I use the 800 base on the 650 with all the rest of the 650 parts and have a decent carb?

My best guess here is its a 8156 and it does have the proper rear metering block and wrong front block. Have you looked to see if it has the rear idle circuts drilled?

If all four butterflys are 172 or 2 are 173's the base plate is a 750. 800 and 850's used 180's.

I'm still thinking your 650 is much better than what you are showing us here. Why don't you do some mods to the 650? like cut the air horn, blend the top and then do some tuning with the pumps, cams and squirters.

Thats probably the way im going, the horn is already cut on the 650 so I guess a good cleaning and tweaking is in order. The carb in question was just in better overall shape and looked like a better starting point, but now appears to be more of a hassle

Yes you can, 650-800 use the same base

That 47812 metering block is from a 4781-2 850dp. Both metering blocks on the 850dp used PVs, so if it has no idle mix screws, its a rear MB.
