Of Course It's Wrong! What Did I Expect?????? Thanks for the I.D. everyone. I've read that a 7042240 is correct for a 72 GS 455. Is this correct? When I get the right one , anyone interested in the 7041540 I have just let me know . Kevin
Unless you're looking for a numbers correct car, the current one is fine. How much do you want for it? ...I have a couple 71's:grin:
carb numbers As a matter of fact , I AM looking to make it numbers matching , or as close to it as I can get. I am putting the smog pump back on , and factory exhaust mans. to replace the headers , and correct intake and carb , so if you are serious , I'd be more than happy to let you have the carb and intake if you need them. Wait till I find a carb, (the manifold is on it's way ) and I'll post it with you getting dibs. :TU:
carb # confirmation Thanks for confirming that fact, now to find one! I've got my eye on one and I'll know in a couple of days , so I'll let you know when it's available. :TU:
72 Buick Carb Kevin, check ebay #200010597746 for a 72 Buick 455 carb., GM number 7042240. Not mine. Thought you may be interested. Ends July 31.
Check out www.blake.com/oemcarbs/partlist.htm . They have every q-jet that exists for sale. Some NOS! They are pricey but I got a used carb from them a few years back and it was like new.
