225 What year Carbs can I use ?

[Bitchs Brew]

Ok my carb is shot on my 68 Barracuda , so on the hunt. Up to what year slant six can I use

 

[pishta]

1bbl? Holley 1920 had about a 15 year run, or the Carter BBS.
maybe 60-75?

 

[Bitchs Brew]

Ok, silly me spaced and thought it a 2bbl,,,lol

Any year after '65 will work. '65 was last year of the throttle rod linkage, I believe.

I have a pair of 66 slants, and they both have the rotating throttle rod linkages. I don't know about 67 or later.

 

[bruceo2011]

Yeah, I wasn't sure about '66.

IIRC, the 65's had cable throttles too if it had A/C for some reason. the 2bbl 318 carbs are not jetted for a six but can be modded I'm sure, ask Slantsix Dan.

That's why I wasn't sure about a '66. I pulled parts from a '66 Dart in a junk yard and it was a cable throttle, but it was an a/c car. I grabbed the a/c radiator and shroud

So like up to 1974 or so, local yard has quite a few Dusters

They are super easy to rebuild, unless the throttle shaft is toast. Even popping out the plug on the top of the metering block is easy peasy to clean idle passages.
