17059286 0977 marine carb
Hotrodssnova:
I'm back with more questions. I recently acquired a different cab for my project.
This carb has the following:
17059253 3228 BZA
K hanger with 'CH' rods
40K on the primary rods
73 on the jets
Would this be a better carb for what i have listed above? I know for sure it will need the shaft kit and the rebuild kit. It has the nytro float.
Thanks
Cliff Ruggles:
Light years better than the Marine unit.
Someone has been in that carb however, as none of the metering rods being used are correct for it, or even close for what you are doing.
The later carb will convert easily to electric choke, has the later APT system, bigger cfm and overall a much better unit everyplace.....Cliff
Hotrodssnova:
Thanks, Cliff. I guess I will need a starting point for the rods and jets for this setup. Been years since i tuned a carb, and it was holleys back then.
Hotrodssnova:
Found these specs here I believe from Ethan:
17059253 Primary Jets .073", 55P Primary Metering Rods, "K" Secondary Hanger, and CV Secondary Metering Rods.
So the jets are good to go for this carb, but i will need to get the proper rods. I'll check my parts bin and see what I have.

Those are the correct stock specs bud as, Cliff, mentioned.
