Re: need source for L71 carb part

Walt, over the past five years or so, quite often I've been able to buy restored, used parts from Holley Carburetor's custom shop. You don't hear many members recommend dealing with the Holley shop, due in part I think, to problems associated with working with Holley a long time ago. This custom shop got new management, and a new focus a few years ago, and I have found them to be very good people to work with. I had them restore my original carburetors off my 1967 L68 tri-power, and was very, very pleased with the work. And, the best part is, their word has been good concerning time to complete, and other important issues. And, no "attitude" that one must put up with occasionally. Are they cheap?......no, but what is on these old Corvettes.
Here's their contact information if you want to give it a try:
Holley Custom Speed Shop
1801 Russellville Rd.
Bowling Green, KY 42101-7360

Thanks for the reply to my carb rod search, I called Holly and they don't have the carb rod.

Clem, what do those numbers mean?

I got misc. parts for my 2818 carb from Chicago Corvette Supply; had to call a couple of times to remind them of my order, but ultimately I got the parts. Don't know if they're still in business.

it is most likely not available new from holley any more so you will need to find a used one. the numbers are from the holley parts catalog.
