What is the correct/original carb for a 71 383 4spd - 07/31/09 11:18 PM
'N' code not 2bbl 'L' code, also what's the CFM and is it vacuum or a double pumper?

All were vacuum secondaries but you'll need to offer allot more info on the cars other options to nail down which one, there were several.

Thanks for the reply, so they're all vac even the 4spd? The broadcast sheet says "48" for carb.

yes, all vacuum secondaries, don't know of any double pumper single 4bbl MOPAR used carbs
48 is part# 3512 848
Holley model 4160 list number R4667A
383 4bbl 4-spd w/o N96 on B & E-bodies

You rock 6bblgt! 
So what is the CFM for this carb and what would you recommend as a stock replacement (aftermarket)? Thanks

That R4667 was either never built or all the manufactured ones, once built were all destroyed. They do not exist. The carb that you want is an R6191 which is a Holley 4bbl for a manual trans car, three speed or four speed. BTW there is no such carb for a 70 or 71 E Body with a manual trans and 2bbl. They were never offered or made for an E Body.

I think I've got a lot to learn about carbs. Which options affect which carb you get? (engine/trans/fresh air what else?)Tav

ademon: If that carb were original to the four speed N96 equipped car, it would have solenoid and wiring included with it, that is standard equipment on all manual trans 383+4 carbs(as shown in the pictures of the 6193 carb). I would bet that the four digit date code stamped by the list number on the airhorn is not from the 1971 production year. Also, the airhorn is a different style than those used on 70 and 71 E and B body cars. 4749 cars were used on C Body cars.

Pretty sure those 70-71’ 383HP 4160s with the 1 3/4” secondary throttle bores were rated at 650CFM and the 4404bbl 4160s (1 9/16” primary & secondary bores) came in rated just shy of 600cfm.
The 71’ FSM shows list numbers for with and without N96? Could someone post a pic of that 4160 specification page? Have heard the same thing about the 70’ carbs over the years, but nothing mentioned in the 70” FSM to that effect. If these N96 list numbered carbs exist, any one now what the physical differences are as compared to their non-N96 counterpart? Anybody have a picture of a N96 list numbered 4160 from 70’ or 71’?

It is a pic of an NOS carb that I sold a few years ago. I didn't record the idle stop numbers.

It could have been a replacement from factory, i don't remember a solenoid on it but that was a long time ago. This topic comes up a lot and i've had a few 71 chargers and bee's long ago and have never seen anything but the one i have posted a pic of, what was wrong with the original carb that the car left the factory with to make them just swap out to a #4749

Re: What is the correct/original carb for a 71 383 4spd - 08/01/09 07:38 PM
I think it needs to be pointed out that Chrysler back in the day was a carb. crazy company. As 6bblgt can attest, there were about 12 separate applications for Holley equipped E and B body cars in 1970. There are about six or more applications for 1971 E and B body 383+4 cars. They were made very specific for each individual application. Sooooo, to just decide on some cheap, replacement, generic carb. is really doing your car a great disservice. The right carb for the right application will always be the best choice for the performance that your car was designed for.

So is the 4749 carb ok for a resto since no one seems to have the originals, I can't give this carb away even for parts, i've had several guys with 71's ask about it but no one wants it, so i'm using it for parts.

ademon, those carbs are hard to find but not anything close to impossible. I have two 6191 cars and also a 6193 and even some 70 383+4 N96 carbs. They are spares and available to cars needing orignal correct carbs.

Well yes & no, you were asking what was correct/original for your car (and your question was answered), not what would work in the place of a correct carb.
The answer? Probably. Will it hook up and work in place of an original with no customized linkage etc.? Probably not, most take some small custom parts to work in place of a stock carb. Sure, the size is in the ball park for a "stockish" 383, but is it the best choice for your application? If anyone says yes to you they are either selling you something, assuming, or flat out guessing, there's no way to know without putting your engine on a dyno and comparing it to other carbs on YOUR specific engine under the same exact same controlled conditions.

OP, with the thread titled as a question “What is the correct/original carb for a 71 383 4spd?” and placed in the “Moparts Restoration & A12 Forum” could it have taken any other direction.

I have been going through the same thing with my car. 71 383 four speed Bee without fresh air. The number that is in the parts book just does not exsist at least I have never seen one or talked to anyone that has. Was even speaking with Bill Rolik who said he had several 6193A carbs years ago but has never laid eyes on a 4667A. So the correct carb as far as I am concerned is a 6191A. Now my original was missing, and am currently looking for one, but I put a Holley 6515 on the car which is supposed to be a replacement for the 6191A,4668A holleys. The carb bolted right up with no fabrication at all and it does seem to work extremely well but am still looking for the 6191A. Also I have the original distributor for the car and am going back to points. Is there a short wire that goes between the vac. advance and the solenoid? There has to be something as the wire on the solenoid and the wire on the advance have the same ends. If anyone had a picture of this I would appreciate it. Someone was looking for the solenoid part#here it is 3438777. Thanks

lakerism - To answer your question, yes you can use the 670 or 750 holley carburetors without any issues as long as they have vacuum operated secondaries. This is because the secondary butterfly plates will open as needed determined by engine speed and load. Also, you can purchase a tuning spring kit which has several different tension springs to vary the opening point of the secondaries diaphagm.

ademon, what's the date code? My guess is that it will be after 1971 and likely 1973 or later. That is listed as a standard replacement carb for any 68-71 383/400 engine.

Well here it is, for those whom have never seen one, the "Bigfoot" of the carb world has finally surfaced, it's real, it exists. I seriously don't believe many, if any, ever got put on production cars, this may be a prototype or from a pilot car (notice the early date code) but it's now proven to be at least a possibility.

My friend has a '71 Cuda 383, 4spd, non fresh air hood, with A/C. I've been looking for many years for the rite carb for him. It's been so long, i think it's supposed to be a 4667. So basically he should find something else?

Ok, i just looked in my GG book that i marked for my friends carb. His build sheet has the "48" so it is the R4667 carb. Is it safe to say we should look for a R6191???? Is that the correct logical choice??......This "kid" (maybe 30ish yrs old) has had the car since he started driving! Loaded car and i mean loaded with options. Stuff like plum crazy, color key grill, A/C, 4spd. I forget all the rest but he had GG do window stickers for him and it took 2 sheets! I think the car was over $5k new? Thanks, Dave

If the car has a super early production date, he might be able to scare up a 4667, if the car is not a super early car, then a 6191 is probably his only option, at least as far as originality is concerned. I think Scott has a couple of 6191's in stock, you should contact him and find out.

My car's production date is 8-7-70 should this car have been built with the R4667A carb or the service manual list number of R6191A. Thanks for any help.
