Default Re: 69 Holley Carbs

They were double pumpers. In 68 or 69 they came out with the three barrel, I had one on my 68 Camaro, I think they were 1000 cfm? They had a nasty habit of sticking and flooding the carb, caused me a lot of money when my car caught on fire when it backfired threw the carb.

I think you will find that the carbs on the Z/28, L72, and L78 engines all had vacuum secondaries. The double pumper carbs were just starting to come out around this time. Some of the ZL1 cars were shipped with the vacuum secondary carbs while the proper double pumper carbs were shipped to the dealers later when GM got the carbs from Holley.
