George Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Second time to visit the site. Having trouble finding older answers to my questions, so I'm hunting fresh replies. I have only had my new 1963 R2 for one week. Last owner said I might change out the carb for easier starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Edelbrock is a great carb, and you will be happy with it, BUT its not a direct "bolt in" as the airhorn is considerable larger. I have heard about some swapping the tops on the carbs to solve that problem. Since you have a blower, you NEED to have the right size carb airhorn, or contact Paxton for a bonnet that fits an Edelbrock. Also the linkage is a little different. You can see about getting an 'R3' box for the carb also. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
