17059272 for 1967 Firebird 326 HO, need recipe idea

<< < (2/2)

Frank400:
I'm using the 17059272 carb, with it's own throttle plate ?  not sure what you mean.  From the factory there was a big spacer between the 272 carb and the 301 intake.  That I am not using.  I'm gonna sit that carb on top of a factory 1967 Pontiac cast iron manifold.  Frank.

Cliff Ruggles:
Be aware the 1967 spread bore intakes have an exhaust channel in the front to heat up the carburetor.  It must use the correct gasket and steel shim, or there will be a huge internal leak under the carburetor.

I recomend plugging off the exhaust supply holes at each end, to keep the heat off the carburetor.....Cliff

Frank400:
Thanks Cliff...now I remember you said that earlier.  I will plug them.  Frank.

17058263:
The 301 linkage is for the 200turbo tranny.  Any way that spacer in good shape be cause i have a 301

Frank400:
I already had a 200r4 linkage bracket.  No, I don't have the spacer.
