I've got a '70 4spd six pack setup with front carb #4382. It's been running "pig rich" and the carbs have been modified, so I'm trying to put them back to stock and work from there.
This particular carb (#4382) calls for a 34R-6153-34 metering plate. I can't seem to find this metering plate (at least Chicago Carburetor & Six Pack Performance don't have any). Right now, I have a 34R-6153-35 metering plate in BOTH my front & rear carb since that's all I can find. Art at Six Pack Perf. was kind enough to tell me the orifice holes on the -34 plate are .089" pass. & 0.093" driver's side. I'm trying to avoid the expense of the ProMax metering plates with regular Holley jets in them.
Does anyone know how I can make my own -34 plate? Is there a similar secondary metering plate out there (same configuration with smaller holes) that I can just drill out to .089"/.093"? What about the -35 metering plates?
Thanks for Your Help!
