I think it would have changed in the 3 years based off of what I'm looking at. I did order a rebuild kit for it. I'm trying to figure out if the original was 4 bbl, going to look under the passenger seat for a build sheet, it's a long shot, but why not haha
It's a Holley, excuse my terrible pics lol Every time I'm near the car I'm busy working on it, so I don't have many pics yet.

Take the carb off or measure the distance between studs. Apparently jeeps of that vintage used the 2209 and I am pretty sure a 2300 or a motorcraft 2100 will fit. The earlier ''63-'64 engines used a 2300 style carb, I have a few of them on the shelf.

Going back to the original post, I would just say forget about that carb and buy another one. I just got one from Holley that is the exact same setup that came stock on my 327. The one I got was a 4150 4 barrel w/ electric choke and vacuum secondaries @ $300. It may be a lot compared to rebuilding, but it is SO much easier.

Is Carter a Holley brand or Holley branded?

Mine definitely says Holley on it, that's why I ask. Definitely good to know though!
Do I need a new intake manifold to run a 4 barrel? That 4150 is definitely beautiful and something I could do down the line..

Yes, you should need a new intake manifold. The Holley 4150 is a four barrel carb.

Hmm any hints on what to search for then? I suppose that's going to be quite the difficult search to find a 4 barrel intake manifold for a 327.

The 4 bbl manifolds are getting scarcer and scarcer but Rambler people have held onto them. Put out the "Wanted" call and you will probably get several responses. You'll need a new air cleaner cover, too. They are heavy to ship.
