?, do you need the rod type, OR the cable throttle linkage type? Rod being more an A body deal.

I have both. also note 62's used a integral choke pull off. perhaps some 63's - not certain.
 
All carbs through '63 used the internal piston-type choke pull off. The external diaphragm type started in '64. This is of no consequence to carburetor interchangeability.
 
Hey slantsixdan
What was the Carter carb model number that was used on 1963 Plymouth Valiant slant six with an automatic transmission? I have looked and can't find it anyway....

thanks

Those numbers are in the factory service manual, which is a mandatory tool for working on your car. Keep in mind the '63-spec carbs are not the only ones that will fit and work correctly on an unmodified '63. Fit-function-flow interchange is Carter BBS and Holley 1920 for '63-'66 A-body with 225 engine (plus '61-'62 with PCV or, as the factory called it at that time, "closed crankcase ventilation"), and fit-function interchange expands that to include the 170 engines. There is also a fair number of later service replacement carburetors, both Carter BBS and Holley 1920, configured for direct installation on your '63 (as well as a bunch of other years). Big and accurate database of carb numbers is here, but do get that factory service manual ASAP.
