You also need the image hosted. It looks like you are trying to upload right from your computer or something?

Yeah, I realized that link was not structured properly haha. You should upload it to a site like Photobucket before you try wrap it in a tag mate.

The center carb bowl is wrong. The fuel inlet should be on the other side.

Ah, looking closer I can see it's a plug.

For the 71 model year and the '70's built for California, you need the center float bowl with the vent tube for the hose going to the valve cover breather ( which should be a 3-nipple version ).

I sent my tired original six pack to Competition Carbs in Sun Valley Nevada. Bob had done some race carbs for us in the past so brought my tired carbs in for him to heal. He replaced fuel bowls by adapting available replacement bowls from Holley by plugging the accelerator pump off. He knew the carbs really well and cured several other problems with the metering block on the center carb and plates in the end carbs. I put them on my 505 ci Charger and it runs great. Couldn't be happier.

Competition carburation 775-331-5609. He repaired all three carbs for $450 including parts. It was supposed to be $300 without parts. My guess would be less than $150 for the center carb that he would test run on his engine at the shop.
