It's simply not a big deal -- if you buy two $20 wrenches. Just weird.

Only two carbs for that model/year -- some 1bbl Holley or a WCD 2bbl. 
440h you have WCD, right? Not a bad carb, easy to work on, kits available.


Do that turbo work for me!!!! I'll do ignition and oil pump!! Then later 
TBI!! :-)
