I'm not having much luck on Holley's website finding out of if I can buy just a fuel bowl for my '70 rr 6bbl, center carb. (ECS) Do they re-make just that or do you have to buy a complete carburetor? Do we have a member who sells 'Holley' merchandise?

The threads on my center float bowl height adjustment are 'crumbling' (E-10?) which caused a little piece to get under the needle Sunday when I went to move the car. I figured I'd pop in a new assembly but found the threads in the bowl weren't allowing the new needle/seat to snug up. Dang! So I tossed on another bowl I had, to move it.

Thanks for the help!

I have a really nice ECS fuel bowl on a rare Holley 4 bbl. Do you have a photo of yours? I can see if it matches what I have. This Holley I have is almost NOS but someone broke the boosters out of it so I am just going to use it for parts. Mine is like a 3310 but isn't and it has ECS.

Can't figure out pictures in a PM so here it is. Just so happens we'll be in Penticton July 4th through the 7th, if the bowl will come close to a match.
If that's a rare carburetor though, you can put boosters in without much trouble. I can drop it off at Scott's for you!

Mine is identical except the tube that comes out on the psgr side curves down. I don't know if it would be easy to change. I'll post a photo tomorrow (the flash on my camera just works when it wants to). I won't be fixing the carb, I figure if it was any good Holley would have made it a few more years than they did.
Edit, it's light enough outside for a few shots, here we go.

Wow, looks great! PM me what you'd like and maybe we can run up the lake & see you week after next. Also, if you need anything 'brought in' , let me know. Let's hope the guards at Oroville aren't Moparts members!

Putting an insert in and drilling it out occurred to me but, I have no taps with the needle/seat thread count!

You can have mine for free, I don't mind helping a Mopar guy that needs a little something. PM me when you're coming up and we'll see when we can meet up.
