I have the OEM Stromberg on my 65 Coronet 440 318 poly and it has a defective accelerator pump but, I'm putting off rebuilding it. Just nursing it along. I built a adapter and have a 2210 Holley 2 Bbl. to try but, nothing seems to be a priority lately. That stock carb will be fine to rebuild and is your most economical choice. On the other hand there are new 2Bbl.throttle body injection kits out there.
