Sean, Chrysler only put the 600 Holley carburetors on the low compression
engines. The high compression engines got a Carter. I don't know about the
rod. Its just there. The shiny pad under the manifold is just to keep some
of the heat away from the manifold and carb. Those and the flat plate that
holds them down are usually thrown away unless you are building a concourse
type car.

I just picked up a 440 dirt cheap from a 1972 New Yorker, and have three
questions:

1.  It has a factory Holley carb.  Is this rare, or better than a
Carter?

2.  The carb has a thin rod above the choke that isn't connected to
anything, and just spins.  What is it for?

3.  There was a shiny metal "pillow" in the back, stuffed between the
intake and the valley gasket.  What is that for?

Thanks,

Sean Bolter
