Most likely another Holley though to be honest the one you already have isn't a bad choice, just rebuild it or have it rebuilt...The 3310 is a very good general performance vacuum secondary carb...

Think you will find it's not the base gasket leaking, but the throttle shaft. The list # will tell what you have, my guess is a 3310 = 750 vacuum secondary




rruner nails it...

you might pull the carb & see if you can ID where it's leaking from & replace that gasket. from the pic it might be the AP gasket. I have an extra one you can have. Be alot cheaper than purchasing a whole new carb & it'll give you the satisfaction of solving the problem

I would just install a rebuild kit on the carb you have before spending the $ on a new one. I had a Speed Demon 750 vac seccondary in my 66 300 and it worked real nice. I'm sold on 4 corner idle adjust carbs since then. They idle smooooth.

I am going to attempt to rebuild it this weekend.

Can this carb be modded at all? It's a 3310 Holley FYI. I didnt know if the rebuild kit was standard or if there were any performance variation rebuild kits.

Ok see the first fuel feed, where it says HOLLEY, then there is that bulge bulging forward right beside it. Up under there under that lip is where it's now leaking like a sive. Any suggestions as to what that could be? That is where the leak is coming from though for sure.

the only way it could leak from where you said is a crack in the bowl. check to make sure it's not the fuel inlet or a bowl screw leaking and dripping down to that area, or maybe from the accelerator pump housing on the bottom of the bowl. there isn't really anywhere for it to leak from at the front of the bowl there. you should familiarize your self with your holley, they are very user friendly.

It could be leaking from one the bottom screws that hold the bowl on. They are sealed with a felt type washer and leak sometimes. It could be leaking from the acclerator pump area as well maybe.
