Hy Spartan 100, the quick answer would be from a 59 maintenance manual, what exactly are you looking for?

Looking for float level & drop measurements. I found a rebuild kit but it came with instructions for a Q-Jet. I would love to find a maintenance manual for my truck.

3B Thats a huge help. Where did you find that info. I am having a hard time finding tuning info(timing, point gap, dwell ect.) I don't think Chiltons goes back that far. Thanks again!
