question on my 245 carbs, pics

[Brandon T.]

The red arrows point to the rear of each carb front is a 3181s tagged carb and other is a 2627s.

see how the rear carb below the arrow is arched and the other carb isn't and has that bolt in the top. I haven't seen many other 2627s carbs like this.

Not sure if this is correct for my 58. I know the 3181s isn't but I was wanting to swap someone out for a 2626s later on.

For 1958 245 hp the front carb should be 2626S. The 3181S was used for the 245 hp in 1961. The 2627S is correct for 245 hp in 1958.

Yes I agree, thats not what I am trying to ask about. Physically the carbs are slightly different is that correct for a 2627s? that arch below the red arrow. Just saying other 2627s carbs I see don't have that arch they're like the 3181s carb in the picture. Not sure about this?

What's the casting number on the air horn on the rear carb with the rounded arch on it?

Here is a picture of my carbs. These are freshly restored 245 set, 2626S front and 2627S rear. Casting is 6-1299 for both.

Those look so nice! who restored them? I think the pic I showed is a service replacement they're dated B4 and B5

which doesn't add up for 61 carbs unless service replacements.
