69 three two bbl holley needs.

[Tom H.]

I am restoring a 69 400hp big block, four speed coupe. I have a set of carbs for it, but the center carb is dated 881, while the two end carbs are 911. Can anyone tell me of someone that might specialize in these carbs and have the correct dated one. I would like to trade off the one I have. I would have to have something very close to the two I have. I have watched the Driveline with no luck, and ebay. By the way, my build date is early March. Thanks in advance for any information.

What is wrong with those dates?

I just want them closer together. I don't think that they came with that spread, and I would feel better if they were closer. Would that be common to have dates that far apart?

Tom -- I have a complete original 400hp '69 set-up with a 3-month spread (center 4055-1 dated 981, with both 3659 ends dated 951). So although your 5-month spread is "substantial", most tri-powers I've seen have the center carb assembled later than the ends.
