So I'm 7 years deep into a 58 Apache restoration and I've managed to get around to starting the rebuilt 235.

Fuel is pouring out the butterfly shaft bushing, and quite honestly the carb looks like complete hell.

I need a new carb for this old girl. The old Rochester has put in many decades of service, and its time to move on.

I see Carter makes a carb with an ever-appealing auto choke feature.

What do you guys think? Is this a wise move? what do you kings of carburation recommend?

Thanks fellas!
