    Okay I will blame it on the concussion, but what is the name of the carburator that is a 2BBL that acts like a 1BBL and the 2nd barrel only opens up on acceleration. It is like a Weber DVG or something.

    When I rebuilt the carb, I didn't realize that the rod the goes in at the bottom was basically worn out. This is why she won't run smooth - vaccum leak . So I need to replace the carb. Rather than put a Carter back on, I think I might look at a 2BBL. I read somewhere that if you didn't want to grind out the log on a 250ci, this carb was a good addition.

    Second, where is a good place to find this
