53 Flathead Carb Identification

Ok.. I DID do a search....

But.

After my last post, you guys convinced me to stick with my stock carb. Now before I go embarrass myself at the local auto parts....

I know it's stock. I know it's a 2 barrel, I know THEY aren't gonna know much... what do I need to know to ask for the re-build kit.....

I checked in my shop manual.

Maybe someday I'll know some of this stuff that seems like I should know.

It's the only carb kit used on flat V8's from '48 - '53, for a Holley model 94. It also usually includes some gaskets that allow it to cover Holley model 2110's used on Y-blocks. Try NAPA first.
