Default Upgrading my carb

My carb needs a rebuild and since we dont have renew kits or anythings for Holley carbs in my country I will make an order for some parts the carb is 750 double pump with unmatched nozzles,jets,damaged power valve you name it so I was thinking of going with HP main body that has no chocks and going from 30cc to 50cc Accelerator Pump is this worth it? and I will order nozzles,jets,new rebuild kit what else do you suggest? the carb is for 383ci,Brodix track 1 heads,victor jr intake,big ***** thumpr cam and all bolt ons so be my guest to suggest the best parts for my carb to match my set up

The power valve is not needed unless you drive it, for a race car, ditch it. For a street car, keep it.

If you aren't having a stumbling problem, I can't see that this would do anything for you, except waste fuel.

.

For some quick free advice. Send an email to 3-4 of the carb guys & fill in their ?? sheet.
With that info, you can judge which is the best combination for you toy.
You might need a 700, you might need a 850?? They are usually pretty accurate of the combination needed,
with the proper information in hand.

Good luck.

The 30cc acc pumps should work very well, the HP main body is great, the proform unit might save some money and is just as good.

NP, i use 570s for my 383 and they work very well, i built my own DP 750 with the pro form main body and the quick fuel base plate, thing is sick, doesn't like low revs with a manual trans, but what big cammed car with no gears does.

Either one is the same really, the Pro form jiust saves 10 bucks or so since it doesnt say holley, the PNs i used are:

Pro form main body: 67100C

Hollry main body: 134-300C

Pro form bade plate: 67155
