Rochester carb question

Post by recessbilly »

My car is a '63, but the motor is a 110HP from '64. I'm unsure if the carbs are from '63 or '64.
How can I verify the carb years to buy the correct rebuild kits? Thanks as always!

The kits from a Corvair vender like Raffee, Clarks, Calif Corvairs work for all years.

Can you please explain to me the difference between 63 and 64 cabs?

The 1964 carbs will have a vapor vent valve located at the bottom of the carb. This valve consists of a 1" long metal arm with a 3/8" diam rubber button at its end that covers a small hole at the base of the carb. The '63s do not have this valve.
