Re: What kinda carb is this?

Ok after searching a little more I found it was a 650cfm qjet replacement for 327-400 motors. Good deal I'm going to get it rebuilt now!

Re: What kinda carb is this?

If it is a replacement for a Q-jet it will be a spead bore type carb. It will work best with an Edelbrock Performer manifold or other spread bore manifolds. There is not enough photos to tell but it probably is not a double pumper.

Re: What kinda carb is this?

It is a spreadbore and a double pumper for sure, you have an accelerator pump on both the primaries and secondaries. I could be wrong but it looks like you are missing some screws on the base plate.

Re: What kinda carb is this?

You need the list number off of the choke horn. It's probably a 6210

He's not missing any screws.....he just has 2 in the wrong spot. The 2 center ones should be moved up/down depending on how you look at it. The center holes are left open from the factory.

So I need the move the two between the primaries and secondaries and move them out by the secondaries?

Re: What kinda carb is this?

Correct and I'm not sure I will EVER understand why Holley machines the main body for screws and the base plate has the holes for them and yet they don't come with them.

I agree with the captain --- looks like a list 0-6210 to me.




Clean away the grunge on the air horn where the choke is. The list number should be stamped there:

Re: What kinda carb is this?

You have a 50% chance of getting the cfm guess right since they only made 2 Holley spread bore CFM sizes. A 650 and an 800. 800's are super easy to spot because they have huge rear boosters.

Re: What kinda carb is this?

Interesting how that little Holley wound-up with those super old needle and seats. The carb can't be all that old because of the plastic vac housing top.

Re: What kinda carb is this?

The 1850 on my Dad's 355 has the old style bowls with adjustable floats/needle and seats. Also has the metal vac housing too. I didn't like it when Holley switched the 1850's over to non-adjustable floats.

Re: What kinda carb is this?

Yes but those needles use an O ring to seal and once you crack them loose, it's very hard to get them to not leak.

2 bowls is not a double pumper. a double pump carb is a mechanical secondary with 2 accelerator pumps

Re: What kinda carb is this?

The numbers on the choke horn are 6210-3. Where can I find a rebuild kit for it?

I have one of those on mine and i was hoping it would be better than a QJet. Its been nothing but trouble and after some research I have found that its the worst of both Holley and Qjet carbs combined. It has minimal adjustment to make it run correctly. It boils over without a phenolic spacer, The floats hang often and flood out the engine, I'm going back to a Qjet. I've had to rebuild mine 3 time in 2 years before it finally work half way decent.
