Carburetor identification


Recommended Posts

I have this 251 sitting in my garage, I was told from a 55 or 56 1 ton. There’s a different kind of carb on it, not the usual ball and ball. I’ve scrapped off some crud (not all though, it’s on there good!), but can’t see a tag or any numbers? Does anyone know what this is? Is it better then the ball and ball? I tried googling it, but that just brought up b&b’s.

Yes, Old Chevy's used the Rochester.  I did try one on my Dodge flathead once and it did bolt right up and seemed to work just fine.
