So two Carter WCFB 2334S 4-barrel carbs? Or was one different, i.e. with the choke?

Hope you can find them for less than the ridiculous money than somebody is asking for these two restored 2613S and 2614SCorvette carbs:

LOL………………those original matching carbs are rare as a 3 legged chicken. I looked for my list of carb#"s of coarse my filing system let me down again. I bought matching rebuilt carbs last year…….for the price I could have taken a winter holiday. That being said the workmanship on the rebuild is impeccable I haven't seen a Swiss watch as lovely. That being said if you are not committed on originality I would consider other options. The lour ise intake for the 57 is a poor choice there's better intakes and carbs available and really better single four barrel performance carbs. I did post pictures of these carbs on the forum but I can't seem find that post either(I still don't know how to do that) Good luck with your search

I was on the phone last evening doing some checking for carbs, the fellow has a 392 Hemi original rebuild with dual 4bbl intake (original ) or so he said but no carbs. My thought just maybe he might have a couple carbs squirrelled away No Luck there

The correct carbs for 300c are WCFB 2534 and 2535.

Agree. I don't know why I thought that 2334 was the 300C carb

If a 57 300C is a C76-300, carbs are as Ron suggests (mostly) 2534S Front and 2535S rear. I don't know the significance of the "S" except maybe (?) that is the automatic carb(s) and no "S" = standard transmission carbs (??)

In my '57 New Yorker build, I just used AFB's from '57-'58. Although not correct for a dual quad 392, they did use them on dual quad 361 and 383 motors from '58-'59. And they very likely work better than the WCFB anyway.

But I know you Swedes think it is absolute drek if it isn't completely stock.....

I think the "S" is on all Carter WCFB and AFB carbs. The D-501 uses the same carbs as the 300-C and they are all manual transmission. I think they use a different number if there is a distinction between auto and manual.
