I will provide further first hand back-up of the existence of factory provided Carter conversion kits for the Holley 4160 applications, performed the conversion many times myself during my time at dealers back then. They were packaged as complete kits, fuel lines, choke springs, any other hardware required, fully covered if under warranty. Installed correctly, appeared completely factory installed. Can’t tell you just how many 4160’s wound up in the trash, considered pure junk then by those who serviced them and many under hood fires were blamed directly on them.
Yeah i read your posts on the bird nest which is why I am wondering if my 4966 AVS was a warranty replacement. I mean everything is where it should be, choke, hose routing, kick down, etc. The only thing it does not have is the ground wire to the dizzy, but the car was converted to the MP electronic ignition sometime in its life. I just was thinking if I could rebuild a 440 AVS for a bit more umpf and it would be a reasonable stock substitute.
i figured the original 4160 holley is next to impossible. Its not the end of the world I am more than happy to live with the carb(s) I have. I just wondered why I had an AVS.

LOL LIST 4735..wait until you try and find one! like NON EXISTENT... and big big $$$$$ SOLD 1 for 550.00 a few yrs ago...RARE RARE
Yep, and of the several hundred carbs that have come and gone from my inventory over the years I have seen exactly one (1) single example that's been available for sale, it's customer owned and still sitting here. He wants a ton for it but rightfully so, they are likely one of the rarest Holleys you'll ever have to find if you need one.

Scott how about a holley 4667? I have an early built 71 Bee W/O fresh air, and on the build sheet it has a 48 for carb. Well if I am doing this properly and I believe that I am the 48 is the last two digits of the Part# of the carb which is 3512848. That part# translates to a Holley R4667A. Have you ever seen one or know where I could find one? I could never find one and opted for the Factory Service Manual list# of 6191. Would love to find the right carb as it is a very original car. This Carb question on these 71 383 seems to come up here often. I seem to hear something new everytime that it does!!
What is the SPD of your Bee? I have a super early one of these that Scott restored for me, I think it may be the only one on the planet. It is dated 0540. Holley does not even list this carb in their carb guide book, and they made it! Scott has a bunch of pictures of it that he could post. I am out of town right now so I can<t post any.

This is my latest list of available customer owned Holley carb cores. These are not mine, prices vary depending on what the owners want for them. I do not sell these cores as is, only as restored units. Some are pretty rough and will require another core carb to scavenge good parts from.
