RE: [Chrysler300] WCFB

Hi John -

My story: I had a WCFB 2210S (55 Desoto) that had multiple problems,
including a wobbly throttle shaft. I sent it off the Daytona Carburetor. 10
days later I got back the most beautiful, better-than-new carb you've ever
seen. Car starts like brand new now. I just had to set the fast idle, slow
idle and choke pull-off. Cost was less than 400. Highly recommended. Very
knowledgeable people.

Hi all,
Into a problematic single quad setup WCFB, it sat 15-20 years with bad gas
in it , gummed up , even throttle blades so sticky In bores spring cannot
pull the carb closed .  A little depressing , it has obviously also been
messed with ( to Jamie's point a few weeks back ) ; manual choke hacked into
it.
I know they are good carbs when working right but once gummed up , or
moronized, one wonders if removing all the lead balls etc to clean out
passages might be needed . Not sure , but not into an atomic carb rebuild of
unknown outcome today either   For daily driver . Pro rebuild takes forever
, not always all roses either ,  and big $ .. 
So why the  post ? WCFB is actually less than a 400 cfm carb , so wondered
if small afb ( edelbrock) might have same bore centers .. like a 500 or 625
.  And so fit on WCFB bolts a or throttle bore locations ?  ? Has anyone
changed from WCFB to a later carb.?? . afb is obvious successor ? Can
Machine manifold , but easier probably  to get another WCFB . Maybe . 
Thoughts welcome , not advocating , but wondering . Rather a new serviceable
carb, than an unknown walk in the park for more money..  and if on a trip ,
cannot get WCFB parts any more... generally . 
Thanks,
J
