I had a car the would not idle and was running rich. I rebuilt the center carb and it did not fix the problem. After much research i found the videos from Harold Demes to be most informative.
I had a warped main body and metering block. The metering block also had a blockage in the emulsion tube that i was not able to clear.
So i started looking for a new metering block. It turned out to be tough to find one. Harold pointed me to six pack performance. They did not have any as all there Holley orders are on back order till the end of the year. Holley just told me to buy a new carb - thanks for nothing.
Worst part is nobody would tell me what p/n to look for as a repalcement.
Not wanting a billet solution as they don't have a vacume advance port and don't look right, I took a chance with a new metering block for the 2300 carb.
Part number 134-203
It has the new stronger body design but the only difference was the vacume advance tube was strait not bent down.
I have made the gasket surfaces flat and put everything back together. It has run great for two weeks now. I call it OK
If you are in a bind this may work for you also. Good luck
