| Post subject: | BBD Question |
I finally found a super 2 manifold. It was in a junk pile at a local boneyard-been laying out in the weather for many years. The intake is ok, but the exhaust won't survive. This setup had a BBD carb on it that looked to be in terrible shape, and I was going to throw it away. SInce the weather here has turned bad, I decided to take a look at the carb. After I FINALLY got it apart, it is clean as a pin inside and I have everything cleaned up in good shape. Quite a surprise to me. Now I need to find out the approx. year it was used, if possible. The only #s on the carb are 0- 2425 under the Carter logo. It has the pcv port, and a port for the choke pull-off. The only other port on the other side looks like a vacuum advance port. Definately older than my 85 truck, whick has about a dozen holes in it. Is there any way to pin down the appeox year on this carb? Sorry for such a long post, and thanks in advance for any help. ken |

Those casting numbers won't help ID the carb, but if you post some good, clear pictures, we can probably get you fairly close by visual ID. |

Place the top on it without the gasket and check for flatness and gapping. The tops warp. I flattened one with a table top belt sander in about 40 seconds. Probably do it on a flat surface with some grit paper. |
