If I take a scv carb and plug the holes to match my non lom distributor do I have to run manifold vacuum???
I believe the bolt spacing & the throttle bore size in larger than your 66 log.
If you purchased a HEI probably you will have over oiling which results in oil dripping from the upper housing.
Also you need to get the HEI recurved for your engine & my over oiling mod. done.
PM me or email me billythedistributorman@live.com Bill

"...Or is the answer in the handbook?..."
Yes.
skim the whole, ck out the tech archive above.
Many here skip the HEI (looks, problems, cost, size) and use the DSII (C my above post).
That is a '77 + dizzy (& its box, the blue strain-relief is suggested) or wire in another like GM 4-pin (C above post).
"...Carter 7260S off a 1978 1/2 ton with the 300 inline 6...."
we might refer to that as a Carter YF (hard to memorize all those #s) may B the YAF (not sure the yr change). Is it not too high for these 60's/70s low hood fords?
I see your 'handle", Did you get that name from your kids? It is a traditional name used in our family. I notice many of the different nationalities in our culture traditionally use specific & different terms gramps, papa, abuelo, etc. Is this part of that? Thanks~

Yes Chad. My granddaughter started calling me PopPops. And I just stuck with it.
I came across another carb. I’m not sure if it’s worth rebuilding or not. Holley 6R 1833B.
That carb was given to me but I’m still not sure what route to go. And I got a HEI already. Had to remove the power steering pump and bracket to install it ( which I didn’t mind cause the pump was locked up anyway) and I’m gust trying to get it to be in a driving condition to play with my ‘66

Not sure what that is. We go by model, those #s kinda refine it for re-build kit once carb is IDed.PopPops":95s0k5zg said:
