WTB 1970 RR Carb

[Rick Hager]

I need a 1970 RR Carb
Looks Like I'll never find a original but I need something to run the car
Holley
The car has the four hoses going into the tube in the trunk and a Air Grabber Hood

I have a California built 1970 383 Air Grabber Road Runner. California cars came with Holley carbs with a vent. I believe the original Holley carb for my car should be a 4217-A, which is for a manual transmission 383 car with the C.A.S (Clean Air System).

Your car sounds like it is also a California car. If it is, then it uses a 3 port oil breather cap and has one line connected to the vapor return line, another going to the carb vent, and the third going to the air cleaner.

I have a service replacement Holley 4749-1, which is proper for the car and has the vent. My car is now fuel injected and I most likely will not return the car to stock, so I might be willing to part with the carb. It has not been used in 5 years or so, but has been in dry storage since then. I would expect it needs to be pulled apart and cleaned, although I did drain it before I stored it so you never know.

Let me know if you might be interested and then I can get pictures, etc.

do you need stick or auto? Cal or 49 state?
$250. each and really nice. We used to race a 70 383
Stock Eliminator.

And your air grabber attaches to a 3-port vacuum fitting on any intake. It's an extra little nipple on the fitting where the brake booster attaches to get vacuum.

Here's a link to a picture. There are some factory Mopar vacuum fittings with 2 or 3 of these extra little nipples I believe.
