Q1. Motor with a 60s/300 style 4bbl Carter AFB type carburetor on it - brake real hard, near panic stop, and motor stalls as if gas/fuel flooding/pouring out of carb float chambers and into the carb/motor guts/intake, and it richens motor too much so it stalls - is this common with thyis type carb in this situation, AND IF SO IS THERE A CURE??
The same carb is now sold as an Edlebrock
Q2. - tuner guys have said put a 4bbl Holley on motor to cure it instantly - DOES THSAT SOUND TRUE?
Christopher in Australia - 1st day of spring, and/but just rained hail and sleet outside. And for US300ly grain farmers, many Southern Australian winter grain farmers badly need rain, plus savage frosts a while back totally ruined many crops before they even ripen
I see there was a seemingly nice red 300C on ebay last week, at around $57k, no takers. I realise 300G looks is a maybe acquired taste, so that one selling in the $60ks was not too surprising given the sad situation re both its's owners, despite it normally should have bought maybe a 25% higher price than usual due to it's known quality/standard?.\
And in the past, was $60s to 70ks a fair/good/average figure for real good '57-61 300 Coupes, so maybe not much changed. But against that one of the bigger Market Report email/websites, just posted few days ago, that now annual Monterey Sales just ended, averaging all big US auction Sales/Results, prices up around 30% - not seemingly with 300s though.
Anyhow, key thing is enjoy driving them, as what they worth only any good if you selling!!
