Most on here dont like the eddy performer 750. Mine actually runs fine. I mean the 440 is slow but starts fine and stumble gone after tuning distributor. Hopefully the 4327s gives ita little more giddyup. Also scored a ch4b intake to swap out the stock iron.
I hhave to admit that i banged up the finish of the carb. After gunk soak it was clean but still carbon . Read motorcycle thread about cleaning carbs in oxyclean. Pics looked great. As as someone with a chemistry background I should have known better. It oxidized and now has a blackish smut as they call it inside and out. I am just going to let it go and hope all is well. Too hard to rub off.

I'm with Lew, not sure how it would work without the tubes.

Here is a secondary booster from one of my 4327S carbs.

"....I will find a monk that will grant you total consciousness on your deathbed..." Do I really want that????????

i really appreciate you posting that. I guess the ones on my core were messed with or the tubes were crusted in the base and I missed it but I doubt all four tubes would have come out. Bummer!

Regarding total consciousness, Bill Murray got it in Caddyshack. "So Ive got that going for me, which is nice."

Exactly. Cannonball comin at ya. I could use a jug of wine and a j right now. Well the old me would have enjoyed it.

So is the new Performer 800 a better carb for my mild 440 then the eddy 1411? If i cant get my afb right i will be looking for something to top my new c4hb.

I looked at a 4327 I have apart, no tubes on these either, they look like the ones in your picture. 4327 dated H6, still had the tag on the screw, car was pretty original.

I would be real hesitant to put parts from an Eddy into a real AFB.

That is interesting. Mine is a little different in a couple of other aspects as well, when I look closely.

OK, thanks. Now I am really confused. Mine had tag as well (dated A6) and was very difficult to get apart. I would be naive to think that it had never been apart.
The guy from Mike's Carbs says some don't have it and says "It will simply pass through the hole in the venturi from accelerator pump pressure."
I will slap it together and give it a go.

I got the carb together last night after a few rookie issues and will try to run it this week depending on honey do list and early Bronco projects. First was excited to get top plate on and figure out pump connections. Thankfully I took a lot of pics. Look in parts tub and see pump nozzle jet. Doh!
The stock needle and seat are so different then new. Stock seat has several holes around it and they sit lower than the new one. I thought about keeping original but decided against it as they do wear.
I thought the float is supposed to be parallel to top plate at 7/16", but it is not with new seat. I would have had to do major bending on old floats to get that so I got it to 7/16" near end of float, yet closer to 5/16" near seat. Hopefully not an issue. The drop was easy to do.
Anyway, wish me luck. Honestly, between the old parts and my skills, I will be surprised if it runs well. I am going to try it on my current manifold before Inswapnin the ch4b, just to eliminate an additional factor..
