need 305 enginew/ carb - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

westy · 01-11-2003, 12:55 PM

I am looking for a 305 w/ carb and manifold, for my 1978 custom deluxe 10. I found this truck back in the corner of an old rundown junk yard, and i just fell in love with it. it needs a lot more than an engine, but i can get all those parts local i believe. i am looking for a good deal, on a good running 305 w/ carb for 100 or less

i dont know if you are gonna be able to find a decent running engine for 100 bucks or less.

when it comes time for me to sale my complete 305, i'm gonna try for at least $300.

Checkout other junk yards.

my friend has a pretty decent 305, w/ out the intake manifold, or carb just the base, with crome valve cover he's asking 75$, is that a pretty decent price?

78SilveradoSWB · 01-11-2003, 07:00 PM

Possibly a good price...if the block is not cracked or the internals aren't seized....otherwise a good paper weight.

pkbinplano · 01-11-2003, 08:22 PM

I got a 305 intake and carb. Where do you live ?

westy · 01-12-2003, 01:38 AM

Castalia, Ohio. how much do you want it for, is it 4barrel? and in good shape, im not looking to spend to much, i'll pay shipping

pkbinplano · 01-12-2003, 09:32 AM

Cost a bunch to ship. What year 305 ? This is a intake/carb from an 86. I live in Texas. Was told the carb was good but would put a kit in it. Has a Roch Quad

Well How much are ya going to ask fer it, as long as its a resonable price then im sure he'll take it, He has to get this beast running.

pkbinplano · 01-12-2003, 11:57 AM

OK the manifold has a casting num 14057055.
The carb is num 17085226 1705 HLY. Electric choke. Choke missing elect coil cover. May have another coil soon. Manifold has thermostat housing with sensor and vacume switch.
OR- i have another quad hot air choke carb # 17084500 1268 HNU . I think this ones for 350. Suggest rebuild of both. Running condition unknown. Could take choke off one and put on the other.
Was going to save carbs for experminting. Will sell intake and one carb for $75.00 plus actual shipping. Yall reading, is this a fair market price ? Dude, you should make sure these parts will work.

westy · 01-12-2003, 08:52 PM

the number for that 305 of my friends is 460776.. i am not sure wut website to go to to look up the year, i was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to look it up, its a 2bolt 305.. and my friend also said that it shouldn't matter wut year that intake is...

westy · 01-12-2003, 08:58 PM

since shipping would be so much, i was wondering if i could just get the holley carb, for about half that... or wutever

pkbinplano · 01-12-2003, 09:35 PM

Its a Rochester Quadrajet. Still Interested? Check the carb number. Its from an 85 I believe. It has a electrical sensor on the front of it that I believe doesn't have to be used.Email me at pkbinplano@msn.com

westy · 01-12-2003, 10:56 PM

so how much do you want for that?

pkbinplano · 01-13-2003, 07:37 AM

$30.00 plus shipping and you can put a manual choke cable on it.
e mail me at pkbinplano@msn.com please.
