LET me 'splain this Berri crab biz again.

Do you know a bush that has Holly berries ? ....Holly and Holley ...same/same ...right ? Capice ?

BG was never even thought of.



ALL in fun here ...at least from my end.

You ...and three cars with Berries on all ? ..

But uNtil you find the "correct path" .... how would you like to be titled ? ....

FRANKENberri




Okay... First up: Funny, but I am unfamiliar with a Holley bush, maybe they dont grow here. then again, horticulture isnt my strong point.
I get the joke now.
The Holleys work great for me. I have had 2 ThermoQuads catch fire on me. Sure, they were old and needed a refresh, but I only like fire with beef or chicken over it. I dont know of anyone in Sacto that knows how to rebuild them right. I'd use one on the Charger to gain some mpg if I had a good one.
The Frankenduster is so named because it started as an original B5 blue 74 Duster slant sick automatic but is NOW a clone of a 71 Duster 340.
Finally..... Your nickname for me? Uhhhh, I'm not feeling the love for it. I'll stick with what works for me. Thanks though. I like the whole "smart alecky" thing you got going here. It makes things more interesting here.

You could get one from this guy. I believe he quoted me 375.00, bolt it on and go.

He has 150,000 carbs in stock, probably has something for your application.

There is a guy on MOPARTS who does an EXCELLENT job with T-Quads.

BTW, attached is a pic of a Holly. I am here to guarantee you don't want an encounter with one while wearing shorts exiting your G/F's house at night through a window. Not that I would know, personally...

I have dealt with the people at the Carburetor FACTORY, not the Carburetor shop. Maybe they are different? The ones I dealt with are nice people but I wasnt happy with the AVS they rebuilt for me. They went through it THREE times and it still isnt right. I had an Edelbrock 1406 rebuilt by them that crapped out after 6 months. It seems that paying $220 for a rebuild service that is barely better than soaking in chem dip isn't working for me. The parts kit is less than $40, so why pay $180 for service? I can figure out Holley carbs myself. $350 for a rebuilt ThermoQuad sounds a little stiff. Thak you though. I didnt realize it would be THAT much.

I think that Superformance is making that gasket now from the good MP-15 material. Check around and see if you can find those gaskets.

You guys are a hoot! Okay, back to the question. I just ordered some from Autozone online. Fel-Pro part number RDS 6583. I love the gaskets. Just got done, yesterday, cleaning Permatex off of one. What a pain in the neck. Tried to protect the insides with rags and duck tape and still got little pieces of dried Permatex on the gears...gaskets for me.

A few years ago, I bought two from Marsh Perf when he was set up at the Memorial Day Mopar Show in Valdosta GA. Todd Marsh is a member here, screen name 'sasquatch'. IIRC, they were MP parts.
