Take the flame arrestors off and look for the Holley List number on the choke housing. Post this number and someone can tell you what you need to know.

They look like 1850's which are 600's but check the list number like he said. Here's a guide that tell's you what is once you have the list #.

:) I looked at the housing, you're right. They are 1850-5. 600cfm.

Look like 6109's with vacuum secondaries.

6109's are 750 double pumpers with mechanical secondaries designed for inline use, great carbs. These are only single feed with vac secondaries. They do look similar at first glance. :)

I bet 1850's. 600 cfm. What do we win if we get it right? :D

I'll lay odds they are 1850's!. That's a good setup, all you need to do is get a couple of covers for the secondaries and run a vacuum hose to connect them together so the secondaries open equally!.. :cool:
BTW, the list number is on the choke horn!. wink

Just got back from Blythe, Parker and a few Resorts. We we're looking at places to but (trailer or mobile home). So, sorry I couldn't stop you guys earlier. I did post earlier this morning that the carbs are 1850's. Rexone and a couple others knew that before I even took the air cleaners off and looked at theh choke housing.
What was that Gofastracer? About connecting the two with vacuum? Thanks

They are 1850s! :D
You need to connect the tops of the two vacuum cansisters together. This will allow an equal vacuum signal to both carburetors when the secondaries open. It's easy to do, just remove the tops, drill and tap them with a 5/16" or smaller barb and connect the hose. Of course there are fancier ways, or you can call Holley and order the kit.
Call me if you need any help on getting it done.

What was that Gofastracer? About connecting the two with vacuum? Thanks With two vacuum secondary carbs, the vacuum signal is not always the same under each carb so both secondaries won't always open equally, that's why you connect them together to balance the two so both secondaries open at the same time, this goes back to the 60's and came from the factory on muscle cars!. Holley still makes the covers with a tube to run a hose between the two!. Hope this made sense!... :rolleyes:
