The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot '60-'66 Trucks Rochester Carb

I've got a rochester 7025382 that I'm trying to identify. I find that it is a 1965 single barrel, California monojet, but 82 gets a little goofy. One website said the 8 may be from a mercruiser and I have no idea what the 2 stands for. My short question is...Is this a B carb? I want to get a rebuild kit, so what kit should I buy?

Thanks guys!

You might also try posting this thread in the Engine & Driveline forum.

I just rebuilt my Rochester and it was a single barrel also. I found that all the single barrel carbs in the 50's and 60's use the same Rochester rebuild kit. Atleast that's what I found out while trying to find the rebuild kit for my Carb.

The Mono-jet didn't come out till 68. You can get a kit for a model B by application but a mono-jet you will need that number.

Thanks guys.

Wrench I was just going by the numbers stamped and what I could find on the internet. I read that the mono-jet didn't come out until '68 but the number indicated a california mono-jet. A couple of the sites said that Rochester didn't always follow their rules though. I'll get a B and see how that works.

You should be able to I-D it by looks. The model B is fat with 4 screws on top holding the air horn down. The MJ is thin with about 6 screws. If you have a MJ you should rebuild it & use it. It is a good carb.

Or just post a pic and we can tell you what carb you have.

nesto426,posting a pic of that carb is a great idea!i'm having the same identification problem here on this end so post as many pics as you can and put two fires out in the process

What's the best way to post a picture here?

OK, I read the posting pictures policy and created a photobucket account. Hopefully this will work. I posted pics from when I started to where I'm at right now, the carb is in 3 of the pictures.
