Re: [AMC-list] Holley 4412 2bbl carb on 290

" From: John Eckersley <john.eckersley@xxxxxxxxx>

" So this Holley came up on ebay and I got it for a reasonable price (sub
" $100).  I know this type was fitted to the 304 and I've seen others
" advertised as for 290.  So, it's as cheap and quick as a rebuild for my
" tired Carter 2bbl.  Only the fittings aren't quite the same.....
" 
" The worst of it seems to be that there's a fitting for a fuel return line -
" Needless to say I don't have a return line - can I get away without this?

carbs don't have return lines.  it  might be an alternate fuel inlet
location.

"  Can I just fit a short pipe and blank it off?

i'd say so - or a plug.

" Tried to google and search the Holley tech stuff, but nothing there is
" really helping.
" 
" I'd happily go 4bbl but I don't have a good/cheap source for a manifold.
