Ok how hard is it to find 2 barrel carbs? I found a 3x2 intake for a sbc vortex heads and was thinking about buying it. If the carbs are not that hard to get ahold of.
They're a hell of a lot easier to find than 97s or 94s. GM put those on just about every V8 grocery-getter during the '50s, '60s and '70s. Place a want ad here on the HAMB, search eBay and Craigslist. They're out there.
you will need to get the correct bottoms for three deuces are it want work right on the street . Speedway sales kits .

Head out to your nearest swap meet. Someone there will be sure to have them. If you don't want to bother with cleaning them up and rebuilding them you can also get them from HotRod Carburetion in MO, , ready to run.
I've got maybe 6 or 7 of them laying around somewhere, I have at least one no idle circuit base for secondary use maybe two, its easy to seal these if you don't have the correct base or are unwilling to pay through the nose for them. There was a fella selling some on Ebay recently also check www.vintagespeed.com they have base kits, carbs, and anything you need for it but they are pricey. Also Eelco sells extra long shafts for progressive linkage as well as the linkage. If you get the manifold and need the carbs pm me and I'll dig em' out.
