Its an ancient, cheap and nasty carb, made under liecence in Sydney Australia from Bendix Stromberg Corp, but was also found on 1953-1967 Plymouths, GM Buicks and GMC's and some Mopar products in the US, before the Email/Carter 2-bbl got used in the late sixties. Also Studebakers after the AMC era.
You can do better than paying 1000 Australian on a numbers match M code 170 HP carb, as the basic Bendix Stromberg the most common 2-bbl carb made in Australia from 1968 to 1979, and one of the most common 2-bbls fro 1953 to 1967 in America.
Just like the 170/188/200/221/250 Stromberg 1-bbl carb, which was actually an American Plymouth/AMC, Holdens 138-200 from 1963-1979. They even cast the name of Sydney as Sidney on early versions! The later 1-bbl 3.3 and 4.1 106 to 123 hp versions made by Bendix Australia were still making the 1-bbl versions move the XD Falcons, F100's and TF Cortina in 1982, so the hard parts are in abundance!
So you can get a replacement 2-bbl Stromberg WW parts from the US as well as Australia, there was a WWC version for the Toilet challenged :rolflmao: .

The Aussie versions were used on the following nine modles, there may have been others with it, like the 2-bbl Hemi or Slant six Aussie Valiants.
1.1969 GTR 161S, the 2650 Torana with 2-bbl, 145 hp I think
2.1968-1970 The H series Kingswood and Monaros with the 186S option, 135 hp
3.1969-1979 253, all of the H, L , V and U series Holdens (up to before the VC/WB Ute XT5 4.2 got the Rochester 4MV in 1980) 185 hp Gross or a lousy 117 hp DIN net rating with Dual Exhasts, even less with single exhast in VB Commodore.
4.1970-1974 F100 (and XY's with 302 Windsor) 200 hp rating I think. My neighbours NZ spec F100 had a factory Aussie market Windsor 302, and it was right hand drive 1974, way after the 1972 2-bbl 302C was an XY/XA/XC option.
5.1971-1974 170 hp gross 250 2v
6.1971-1976 240 hp gross 302 2v Cleveland
7.1972-1976 260 hp gross 351 2v Cleveland
8.1976-1979 207 hp SAE net XC 2-bbl 4.9 (New Zealand*)
9.1976-1979 193 hp single exhast XC 2-bbl 4.9 (New Zealand*)
Every NZ 4.9 XC I've seen missed out on the Carter Themoquad, but I didn't see many.
The GM version of the WW and the Ford version didn't have the Holley 2300/Rochester 2 Jet or 2100/2150 stud pattern, it was an oddball stud pattern. I have a WW250 2V base downstairs. A Redline adaptor was used for 350/500 conversions, I think.
