I just bought a '71 Swinger and the Holley carb that is on it needs to be replaced.  It is a 1 bbl.  Does anyone know the model number of the carb offhand?

Thanks

I would switch to the alum 2bbl intake & use the 2300 series Holley 2 bbl , the /s run far bettter this way

Not trying to sound insulting, but have you checked the carb? Most single barrel carbs I've seen had the info stamped into it.
Sixty-eights look great and the '69 is fine.

go to partsamerica.com  A new carb runs a little over 100$.  Or you could get a rebuild kit for less than 10$

Better yet, go find a 70's Super 6 setup in a boneyard and switch to the 2bbl. It's a pretty straightforward swap.

The car isn't at my house.  It's on the other side of town, I was just trying to see if anyone knew offhand.

Sorry. I don't know.
I can second - or third?- the super six swap. Did it to a 67 Dart GT I  had. Worked rather well.
