2bbl carb swap

[250Mav]

i did this a while ago to my maverick and love it so the comet should be getting it soon too

its a Holley/webber 5200 progressive 2BBL carb. i idles better, gets going quicker, and if im easy on it mpg's dont suffer either. it was an all around improvment and pretty much all bolt on.

you can mill the head to directly bolt on a 2bbl but i just used an adapter plate. it probably doesnt reach its full potential that way but it did make it a bolt on swap and was still a performance improvment

hey i i am thinking of getting the same type of carb besides the adapter what type of manifold did u put in what type car and engine i have a 200cid 61 comet i always loved these carbs i use to have one on my vw bug they are really realiable theirs this web site that sells them cheap so u think i could fit my comet

Dave the intake is cast on the head, the only way to remove it is to mill it off.

See Ya,
