One of the only good 1967 dated 3911's in existence.
If you own a 1967 Z/28 or 396/375hp with smog this is the carb you need.
Dated 752 it is not a service replacement.
Professionally rebuilt by Eric Jackson, this carb is ready to bolt on.

$4500

Why does this look like the previous date was ground off and then restamped to the left of it? Note date location on your 3910 carburetor compared to your 3911.

If I may step in here;

The carburetor was like that when Mike received the carb, and when it arrived to me for restoration.

This is not the first time I have seen this done, and I am very, very confident that this was done when the carburetor was new, and that it was/is not an attempt to alter the date, but more likely a factory repaired mis-stamp. (There are a few other things that I don't wish to disclose on a public forum that also lead me to believe this is a factory stamp) I wouldn't think Holley would have scrapped an otherwise perfect carburetor over a mis-stamp.

FWIW, ever seen a double, or even triple-stamped Holley metering block? I've seen a bunch of them.

I have seen at least a half-dozen other Holley carbs with what I consider to be a "repaired" date from the factory. Some of the other carbs I've had in I am absolutely certain had been like that since day one. An example would be an apparently rather large run of Holley LIST 3418 carbs which were produced in 1970. I have seen numerous examples of that particular carb that had their dates ground off exactly as seen above and re-stamped. It wouldn't make much sense for someone to go to all the trouble to make such an obviously poor attempt at altering a date on an otherwise low-value carburetor.

If I had any questions about the legitimacy of this carb, I would've declined to perform the restoration.
