627B carburetors?
« on: November 07, 2016, 01:40:15 PM »
Cleaned the crud off my spare carby's - found that I had one rack of 022A where I thought I had two!

So whats the straight skinny on 627B carburetors?  Visually, there are miniscule differences between the 022A and 069A carbs.

Update; found 105 mains and 40 slows in the bowls.

What can I use between them to make one nice rack?

 All the 500/550 carbs used the same bodies from '71-76 and, therefore, the same manifolds. The '77-78 models were different (and even slightly different from each other in jetting) and used different manifolds.
 All the other 500/550 carbs had slight differences in jetting, mixture screw settings, etc. I think that if you used the stock settings for any particular set of carbs they'll pretty much run on any 500/550 (yes....even the carbs that came on the F models with ever so slightly leaner jetting for the 4-1 exhaust. There really wasn't THAT much difference between them).

That plus drop the needle to the middle slot and you'll be down to air screw adjustments.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S.
