thebeebe5 Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 I have a 439s. Do other numbered carbs like a 514s and 592s share things like main jets, accel pumps etc? Is the difference in venturi size? Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 not to put you off or anything like that, but one time a question on these came up and I found a great deal of information on the internet...do a search on the carb model and see what you find.....I did not earmark the web address....

I get lots of used carbs and parts for sale in my searches. Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 you probably using google..you better off throwing 50 pennies over your shoulder and finding them faster than finding anything with google...try yahoo....returns are fewer but more relevant.... Quote
thebeebe5 Posted April 25, 2018 Author Report Posted April 25, 2018 Might be the case. Everything on google was "where to buy". One thing I did find discussed bore sizes that went from 1" (mine) to 1.25" and then eventually to 1.5". Not sure how that correlates to the model number on the air horn. Still researching. If I can't jet the small carb to be happy with that turbo by drilling the jets (from a wide band standpoint) I'll be searching for larger bore bigger main jet units from later models and using one of those. Either an adapter to the original intake manifold or just get a later model 23" intake. It's quite possiblenwe end up making both a nee intake and exhaust set of manifolds, and if that's the case I'll see if I can adapt a Stomberg 97 to it. But that's way down the line. I'm just thinking ahead in case and wondering about options... Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted April 25, 2018 Report Posted April 25, 2018 I refuse to use google.....bring back too many returns and they are not sorted well for application to your search.... https://carbkitsource.com/carbs/tech/Carter/BB-index.html Quote
