70 GS 455 Auto Carb Needed

70 GS 455 non Stage I carb for automatic. The 70 car I have brought home over the summer has a 70 4speed Chevelle carb on it...interesting, but not correct. Now I have ot find out if the Chevelle guys need a 70 date coded carb for a Chevelle also...in the meantime, I need a 70 GS carb

 

I may have a E coded carb from a 70. I will be back Monday and will pull numbers if you still need the carb.

 

The E code is indicative of plant correct? My car is a KC plant, needing a 704024(even number here for last digit)

 

E code stands for May production. I have a 455 pan to carb engine.
I have never looked at the carb numbers. I also have a white new uninstalled white convertible top that I do not need. FYI

 

What month carb do you need?

 

October (1st week according to body tag)

 

I should have a 7040240 in rebuildable condition. Cheap. Let me know if you need it.

 

awesome...how much and who would be the best for rebuilding. Fred Catlin used to do my old ones and they worked great, but I didn't knwo if he was still around.

 

I would go to John Osborn.

 

not sure if this is what you need or not, but is listed in the local craigslist here.

Wade,

I cant seem to locate my 7040240 carb. I dug thru all of my old qjets and cant put my hands on it. Sorry for the wild goose chase. ou:

 

Thanks for looking Jim...let me know if you find one. In the meantime, still looking...

 

Jim, go ahead and take a look at what you have available if you get a chance...thanks

 

I know I have one. Not sure of the date code. If things don't pan out bump the post.
