No record of carb change. But I can tell ya the dealer was dealing with maniflold leaks early in its service.....like I am now
That looks like a stock carb to me, but it depends on the year. My 70 had a carb like that on it that was original, but I replaced it with a Holley Reman, and I got a later casting that has a vent port on the left side of the float bowl. I will try to post a pic later. As far as manifold leaks, are you talking about intake or exhaust?
