That would be excellent, Neil. Thanks to whoever comes up with that diameter!

in the mid 60's (65? 66?) the carter 4bbls went from a smaller top diameter to the common 5 1/4" top diameter
as far as i can tell that didn't change till 68 .
that aside, it sounds like he has the air cleaner already on it and he is calling it the wrong carb

OK, I ordered the Edelbrock carb from my local parts place. I can pick it up this evening. Earlier today, I talked to Summit's tech people and they said the top diameter is 5-1/8". Will this still work with the stock air cleaner?

did you miss the part in this thread were it was said ....
YES IT WILL FIT
????
the only thing you may have to do is bend up the 2 small locatiing tabs at the rear of the carb opening on the air cleaner base , stock carbs have notches to orient the air cleaner and keep it from turning .

One more question!
Wiull this carb fit on a stock intake manifold, without using any special adapters?

Oh, and don't try taking the carb from the box and bolting it right on the car. I have put 5 or 6 of them on and from my experience they are just thrown together. You MUST take the lid off and check the float drop in both directions and make sure the jets are tight. Turn the two air mixture screws all the way in and then back them out 2-1/2 - 3-1/2 turns. This will get it close enough that it should run and you can fine tune it with a vacume guage later.
Also if you bought the electric choke model there is a fast idle screw hidden way down on the linkage. The last carb I put on this screw was way out of adjustment and when I went to start the engine the rpm went sky high instantly. Scared the crap out of me and not good on the engine.
Good advice

You may need the chrysler kickdown adapter/throttle linkage part that they sell seperately. When I bought my 800 avs in the picture I posted earlier I had to go back and pick up the adaptor thingy that bolts onto the existing linkage.
he will absolutely need the adaptor or else the connecting the throttle cable will be an issue
