With so many clone carbs out there...especially the 66 center carb you may not know what you have. Say if the carb came off of a 350 the idle idle pick up tubes, could be as small as.029 or smaller. I have seen idle mixture orifices as small as .049

There are many modified motors out there with today's fuels, stroker kits, aftermarket cams and heads. Modifications are necessary to your tri-power to get optimum performance.

You can use the various size drills included in the kit to first use as a guide to check what your idle pick up tubes and idle mixtures orifices are. Below I have listed what size drill should be used for various applications.

  • Idle mixture orifices:
  • #50 drill= .070 STOCK 389 or 400
  • #49 drill= .073 WILD 389/400, OR 421,428 STOCK TO MILD

There is a  pin vise included in the kit for the #52-74 drills. You will want to use your drill motor with the #48-50 drills as you are going to be drilling into cast iron.
