Evening all. So several years back, a buddy of mine got killed on a motorcycle crash. His dad and him were both big into hot rods. Anyway, his dad messaged me, he had a pair of very nice running 750 Holleys off his 460 ford with a tunnel Ram. He was going down to a pair of 600s and made me a really good deal on these two.
Probably gonna have to rejet them and such but they should work for my 440 enough to break it in. Hell, maybe I’ll just go tunnel ram myself lol

Nice!
It worked! Gotta like that.
I love the patina on that car.

I check youtube for almost any job I do that is even slightly complicated. Even if I know how to do it, I often find better ways. And almost every problem you have, someone else had before. With the possible exception of a valve keeper stuck by a spark plug….
Check the air horns for what they are. They're not the same. Might be the same list number 4779 but different revisions. However you never know until you check.
Generally no reason to change jetting until you've taken them out to the track and/or interstate...

0939 on both of them.

The one has been upgraded to an electric choke and different vacuum system. The other is manual choke

H'm. My understanding is the 0939 is the date code. But we see the tallter, square cut vent tubes in this one.
The other has the shorter slash cut tubes that are common on the -3.
The vacuum pod top is different on the other one as well.
I don't think it matters you could use either use either one. IIRC no -2 came with a secondary block so those were added.
If it was me I'd map both out to know what I had. If/when you open them, feel free to ping me.
An unmolested early 3310 should be fine. IMO better than most carbs sold in the past decade or so.
I hate electric chokes.
if I could use a the choke coil in an intake well on every car, I would. Keeps it simple.

Hey bartender!
Yep. A little trip to Puerto Vallarta. A bit different on this side of the country..
Enjoy paradise Rick and thanks for bringing us along.
E bay is magic sometimes. Lauren broke our drink pitcher. A friend gave it to me back in the late 70's and of course they don't make them any more. Well, a few key strokes and bingo! I found 2 and bought them both.

Morning: pass the coffee. Not sure I even slept last night.
Morning!
3 degrees below freezing. Maybe a high of 40. Ya, not liking this at all. Think this winter is not going to be very pleasant at all.
