Carb Problem on Barracuda

[<62-65-mail-list-club@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am reposting this for Larry as the email got misdirected. 

My reply: 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qg19Cz2dWAI is a video that deals with rebuilding the Carter 1 bbl, Most float are 
5/64 it claims. If you get the exact model of your carb we can probably confirm that number.

Thanks,
