holley carb questions

[z28addiction]

i have a holley carb and its a really big. how do i know what size it is?

[colinb67]

Get the list number off of the choke horn. that will tell you what model the carb is. Then you can figure it out.

If your lucky you got either a 4150/4160 or a 3310-?

the mumbers say List-1850-3. i looked and i think its a 600cfm 4160. is it a good carb? would it be big enough for a stock 350? and do you know of anyone selling an intake that this carb would fit?

[Bowtiebruiser]

an edelbrock performer would work with that carb, and yes it should work on a stock 350 as long as the jets are right. And yes it is a very good carb

ok. good. im planning on putting the carb on the car and switching back to tpi later on when i get a good job

Make sure you get the even bore intake for that carb not the spread bore.
There are adapters if you happen upon a spread bore performance intake for a song but it's better to have the right intake.

There are two different Performer intakes,the even bore is for a typical Holley or Edelbrock carb where the throttle bores are even as in all the same size.
The spread bore is for a typical stock Chevy/GM type 4 V Quadrajet carb,the spread bore means the front two bores or primary circuit is smaller than the back two bores or secondary circuit,Holley also makes spread bore carbs but the even bore carbs like your 600 are far more common.
You can use either intake with your carb should you find a used one that is spread bore you can get an adapter flange but if you buy new get the even or square bore for your 600 carb.
