Wanted 79 Pontiac 400 4-speed carb. I have a 73 800 cfm Q-jet on it now , but the choke tubes are backwards.
I did mod the lines to make it work , but thought correct would be better.

Make sure to connect a rubber hose from the choke air supply to the back of the airhorn. If not, unfiltered air is entering the engine.
I don't have any 79 4 speed carbs left, but plenty of 76-78 Pontiac carbs in the core pile.....Cliff

I have a couple of 4 speed 76-78 carbs in the core pile someplace. I've sold a few in recent years, pretty sure I have at least 2 left.....Cliff

I may have a carb for you if it doesn't work for my application. Look in the carb talk area for my post with the carb info. I don't need this specific carb just looking for a good 800 CFM core. Not sure how this will work with the large vent tube for air cleaner clearance.
