Several questions here. I beg your patience.
My car is all original except for headers, aluminum intake, Holley carb, Sears alternator, plugs and wires.
I figured if I could find a somewhat correct intake, carb and exhaust manifolds that would be a good thing.
A Holley and Edelbrock were on the car.
I bought this AVS and the cast intake.
Did I get it wrong?
Both holes on the cast iron intake’s choke well weren’t drilled so I figure that is some type of option and the AVS doesn’t use the choke well?
The AVS carb is “B9” (Feb. 69) but is it the right carb for my car?
It’s a 4 speed car but the “SA” seems to be debatable.

My build sheet says “77” under carb and “45” under choke.
My vehicle order number starts with “603” which I think is June 69 for a 69 Road Runner.
Why am I doing the multiple carbs you ask.
Since I have another 69 383, my long term plan is to pull the numbers matching engine and have the spare engine rebuilt for driving and save the numbers matching engine. I'll run the Edelbrock and Holley.
The cast iron intake and AVS are just to complete the original engine as much as possible.
I have plenty of correct bolts. But my spare 69 engine came with a 2 barrel and it had studs and bolts.
I’m guessing that’s not correct for a 4 barrel.
Again, I’ll run the Holley on the Edelbrock with my spare engine.
And I'll save the cast iron manifold and AVS with my matching engine just because they are “correct”, I hope.
And what is this spacer thing that came with the cast manifold?
I’m sure it is an aftermarket item. It would be good because the Edelbrock doesn’t have the cross piece in the intake to prevent loose screws from going into it.
The space will prevent that.
See the picture of the bottom of the Holley next to the intake and spacer for what I mean.
I cleaned this Holley up with “soda blasting”. It worked great. I won’t use cleaners again.
The 3310-1 Holley came with the car. It figures I would get some kind of odd Holley. It's not a dash 2 or higher.
It was a nightmare getting the kit without paying 100 dollars for a kit that is for every Holley ever built with a gazillion parts in it.. ( 37-1539 )
Or kits 37-1544 or 37-1446 which no one had on the self to look at to see if it came with 2 power valves.
37-485 was 40 dollars and had the two power valves in it.
It was sitting on the self at Advance but no one gave that as a kit number for Holley 3310-1..
