Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

What does this carburetor fit, I know it's aftermarket,but what is the application.

Re: Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

A 2bbl 'teapot' carburetor.
Aftermarket? Holley made them for Ford. It could be a 'Restored by Holley' carb
or New Old Stock / New Old Replacement Stock but it looks too clean to have been sitting for years.

This is just a guess to see how wrong I am when someone who really knows answers you.

'54 - 239ci, '55 or '56 Y-block 272 or 292(?) V8

It is brand new, and yes, I have had it for 20-25 years tucked away in a cabinet. Just discovered I still had it. The only haystack or "towering infernos" I have seen with is look is the 4 barrels. None of my Holley books show it and I have been able to get no information from google.

Some trucks used them also.

Re: Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

According to the Holley listing I have, it's aftermarket for a Volkswagon dune buggy believe it or not. Probably released around 1970. Holley model 1901 carb.

Also the same type carb used on '52 - '53 Mercury's and 1952 Lincoln 317's

It appears to be a HOLLEY 1901 2V Series.

Are there any ID Stamping Nos on the mounting flange?

:confused:

You weren't here when I posted.

How did you do that? ;)

Re: Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

I don't know. I saw your post right after I posted the info. A cyber space thing I guess. LOL

The Holley tea pots were used on the 279 F700's, and four barrels on International, Reo, and White trucks. The truck models were mounted on, or incorporated a vacuum controlled governor.

VW sounds plausible (beach buggies :rolleyes:).

I wonder why such an out-of-date design was chosen?

Re: Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

A message from Sal (scicala) let me know that the older style carb in Dick's photos was updated to a version called the Bug Spray, so I had to dig up this 1980 'blast from the past' photo.
This toy had one on it.

Here is a better shot-

Re: Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

What I meant in my message was that the Bug Spray carb was made from the 3 bolt Holley 94 type carb with a four bolt base. The one Dick showed was a Holley 1901 model also made for a VW buggy.

Sorry, disregard my last post. I misread Dmsfrr's post.


Sal

Re: Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

Oh, then I showed the wrong photo?

Sorry about that. Dune buggies are not my specialty... :o

Re: Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

The carb in your photo looks like the updated one to me, but I haven't had the red/white buggy for about 30 years now. CRS

So you were a wild child beach bum in your early days?

Below is how I spent my time-

(closer to 40yrs ago)
A pretty fair amount of sand here but no beach or ocean. Desert off-road racing.

That red 2dr looks like a serious beast.

Re: Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

And a Starliner to boot !


Sal

Re: Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

I always liked the Starliner,,but never saw many of them, and never saw one for sale until I was in my 50's and then I could not afford them. They became sought after, and seemed to be pretty rare.

Re: Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

Your welcome.

You've noticed that also?

Re: Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

For all concerned, I re-researched and allyall are correct, it is a Holley 1901, and has VW connecting linkage on it. It does look new after 25 years or more because I have had it in a sealed box and in a cabinet. I will accept any reasonable offers on this.

Re: Holley carburetor List # R-6113
 

Listing it for sale on a VW owners webpage / website will probably get you more responses.
Or even on ebay ?
