Ya, thanks. I already knew that. I'm looking at kragen.com for carb rebuilding kits and there are different carb numbers for different Keihin carbs. Where are the numbers on the carb?

most of thoes kits are universal...when i picked up mine i ended up with lots of extra junk i did not did...i asked the guy why and he told me that it was for like 6 models of carbs....so yeah.

Yup gaskets and o-rings are universal our carbs are the same but some castings will have ports closed up or have less diaphragms based on Auto, Manual, A/C, no A/C, so they wont use everything.

One part that does have a different gasket is the EFE Plate, I'm pretty sure it's year based. I don't remember if the kit came with the two variations on the EFE plates rubber gaskets.

I have been in several threads and keep find an issue with the vac lines. After looking at my carb today, it seems to be a holly version of the 2bbl Keihin. I think I will have to check for leaks and see if I can keep the idle going. It seems to stall when I come to a stop. I now have an idea, but just short of the rebuild kit, I can still rebuild the old one(still in trunk, came w/ car). Who has the cheapest kit?
