I have this Holley that I'm looking to replace. I can see some numbers but I'm having a hardtime finding something online.

My boat is a 1981 Ski Tique and the numbers show List-7158 2559. The Holley site has a PDF file with all the carb numbers but cannot find it either. I "think" it's the 4160 Carb but I'm really not sure. I'm looking for a straight replacement as the current carb is 30 years old.

I've included some pictures (hopefully) the link is allowed. https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=AE14F66E640ADAE4!2869&authkey=!AHXNWwSMSy-QpCA&ithint=folder%2c.jpg" rel="nofollow - Holley Carb

Thanks for your help as always.

That's a 4160. Not a lot of great online references for Holley marine carbs online, you'll want to call their tech line to figure out what rebuild kit it uses. It's surely a 450cfm if it's the original carb bolted to a 302.

No need to replace it based on age. Many carbs much older still run perfectly fine. If it's having issues, a rebuild should sort it out. If you go new, sell me your old one!

I cant find that list number in my file. Other sources say kit# 703-33. As Tim mentioned a rebuild should clear it up. Contact http://daytonaparts.com/" rel="nofollow - daytona Parts for a kit.

If you go new and Tim passes I may be interested in your old carb.

Daytona does not offer kits for 4160 carbs, at least not as of a few months ago when I called.

Holley can tell you which kit it needs... And they're the only ones I'd trust to get it right.

A 450cfm carb will be too small for a 351w, FYI... Works great on a stock 302 though.

Thanks everyone. I found a shop outside of Seattle that will rebuild it for 200 dollars. I'll go that route for now.

Cheers!

Must be something new, bought two kits last spring for my 4160's. They do not offer their proprietary floats for a 4160 as of yet.

Just looking to rebuild it for future use or if some one needed it.
