Hi Cliff, First thanks for responding. I will try to post some pictures for the carb. I can handle taking the pictures, but I don't know about posting them. I'm not very computer savy. It looks like an older style with a divorce style choke and no Idle solenoid. It's on a 1967 firebird with a OHC 6 cylinder that was converted to a 4 barrel. Anyway I will try my best to post and thanks again.

If you are not running the A.I.R. system you may want to replace the #49 primary rods for a set of #44-#42.
