Hey, if I build an aluminum adapter plate, why can't I use a really small Holley carb on my 2.6 motor? They came with accelerator pumps, and electric chokes. So, why not a little 300 CFM two barrel unit? Just asking. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Someone has one here. I can't remember who or what details. I think he made an adapter that then mounted to a Weber plate.

Frank: I'm no Holley expert, but is your's different than this one I found? And how would I know which one would be better? Thanks for any info. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Some differences:
1) 350 CFM
2) integral bowl (top gasket) - that one has a side mount bowl (think leaks)
3) cast aluminum color
4) dual fuel inlets (Y)
5) see-through fuel level sight plug
Other than that, they're probably pretty much the same. I think this one has a 6.5 power valve in it, but not certain. I don't think the montero pic site is working yet, but if you want I can email a pic to you.

That would be great Frank. I'll PM you my E-mail addy. And one more question. In the stock carb, is the electric choke controlled by the computer? Or is it just a signal that is either on or off? If just on/off then any electric choke carb will work. Correct? Thanks, <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

The choke is actuated by a 12v lead taken off the ignition switch - 12v heats the coil which moves the choke valve - about the simplest choke arrangement you can have.
I don't know about OE electric carbs/ECU, but all Holley electric choke models I've seen are ignition switched on/off.

mabey ive just gotten bias in my old age... my wife says im a cranky crusty dirty old man <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" />. but ive never had good luck with holleys. in personal experiance, when theyre working right... they work great. but when they start to have problems, fixing them was a nightmare. fyi, avoid anything carter. edelbrock build a dam good carb, and if you go that route, AVOID THE STREET PRO... you wont be able to climb jack or articulate worth a crap. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

I can still get my old Redline riser plate for the Weber 350 cfm carb, if anyone knows if that will work... I think it was a 2540, but not sure...
