I have a D2PF-GB on it now. One site I checked said it was from a 72 351. Another said a 302.

This carb floods when starting very easy, and sputters pulling out at red lights. I'm 50 so its not like I am a total idgit on carbs.

I'm all for easy fixes. So would I be better off having this rebuilt or should I start over and look at remanufactured or new ? Not really knowing any old school Mechanics that are any good or the current market on my best options. I thought I would put it up to the membership here to advise me.

Try a Holley 2010 (like the Autolite 2100 but uses readily available Holley parts) 350 or 500cfm. Or an Autolite 2100 wirh the big venturis.
