You should be able to take the stud needed for the throttle cable from the old carb. As for the kick down I'm not sure about the th200 but I used both brackets you found to work with the 700R4 I have in my car. I think the lower bracket you see in the pic is only for the 700R4 and 2004R overdrive tranys with the TV system. Go to Holley.com and you'll probably be able to find the correct brackets for your application.
Yeh, on the Holley site you should be able to look up the street avenger carb and it will list the brackets you need. Thats what I did for mine. But as you said the lower bracket was listed as specific to only the 700R4 & 204R with the TV system. Does your trany have an overdrive?
Yeh you can probably make that work with a few adjustments. On the 700 & 204s Its more critical because the cable controls fluid direction and pressures in the trany and if they aren't set rite you get a fried trany.
What CFM rating is the new carb ? Some times we have to fabricate items for linkage changes, where it's a not-stock set-up. Hope you get it figured out.
The lowest CFM street avenger is 670 CFM not sure how it will work on a stock 305, but the built 305 i had it worked great,and i still run the Holley Street avenger carbs ! great right out of the box ............
Holley is the one and only carb! I don't understand why some people shy away from them. I grew up with them and they're the only carb I want on anything I drive. The 670 Avenger is what's on my car now and it's the balls and most importantly the motor likes it.
Didn't mean to do that I've got nothing bad to say about the Eddy that was on my car it ran great with no problems. I guess its all about what you're used to. :beer:
I had Holleys run great right out of the box too. Usually the 3310 vac secondary models, but used one 1850 that ran fine too. That's a 600 cfm if I remember correctly....
I have a Holley marine carb on my boat engine too, a spread-bore type.
I would think the 570 would be ideal for a 305....
OK guys. I have a Holley 80570 (570 cfm) Street Avenger on my 305. It works great!
