Carb replacement

Post by Randy »

I have a stromberg ww 2 barrel on my 65 318 i have tried to rebuild it but think it's shot . Is there a direct new replacement out there? Would like not to do alot of mods and would like to use the original air cleaner if possible any help?

I second the Carter BBD they are a dime a dozen, I have three on hand as spare parts, and one that I am slowly converting to be a blow though turbo setup. Be leery of the shaft bushings as they will cause a vacuum leak, or boost leak if too badly worn.
