What carter wcfb was on my 1960?
I have the oringinal block for my 1960 and it is date stamped Feb 9, 1960. What carter carb model would have been on it 2818S or 3059S? It is a 283 1x. The only clue to manufacturer date is the engine stamp of feb 9 1960 and the vin last five are 04607 if that helps.
Thanks
Thanks

It would help if we had a clue about which engine it is - 1x4?, 2x4 245hp?, 2x4 270hp?

Even though the feb engine date? The NCRS manual says 59 and early 60 is 2818S.
Thank you

both the 2818 and the 3059 use the same carb top #1396.The center section for the 2818 is #208 or 1208.The center section for the 3059 is #1353 or 1517.But you definetly need the 3059
