2 Bbl Carb conversion
So my truck is out of commission right now. I just rebuilt the 1 barrel Rochester carb for my 61’ 235 straight 6 because it was leaking, I’ve driven it around the block since then a couple of times, but today when I started the motor, it starting leaking like a water fall out of what it looks like the base of the bowl to throttle body.
Anyways after reading many threads about converting to a 2 Barrel 32/36 carb, I’m almost wanting to say the hell with it and throw the damn Rochester 1 barrel away, I keep hearing about how many people dislike them because of how unreliable they are and performance. Looking more into the conversion I can’t seem to figure out how someone could work out the throttle linkage. I’m finding threads only about the conversion on a 250/292 straight 6’s Looks like the throttle valve On the carb is facing on the left side, while the stock set up with a 1 barrel is facing on the backside, facing nearest to the firewall, how could I make that work. I’d love to see a few pictures of anyone’s 235 straight 6 with a 2 barrel 32/36 Webber Holley set up and linkage. Thank you! Last edited by Isaiah92260; 11-16-2018 at 12:26 AM. |
