I'm looking for info on the type carb on a 58 Firedome wagon with 330 hemi. I pulled the one on the motor off to have it rebuilt but there is no model number to be found on the carb. I guess there was a tag attached to the air horn but it's no longer there. I am trying to find a re-build kit but without the model number am having no luck.
Any ideas? I could also just by another carb, just looking for input on where to find one, or a re-bulid kit.

Houston? We might have problem.
A 330 hemi in a 58 Desoto does not compute (I think it should be a 361 non-hemi with the distributor at the front of the intake manifold, at least based on this:)

The last hemi used in Desotos in 57 was a 341 (non Adventurer) so a 330 is definitely not the original engine. If it is a 330 Desoto w/ 4 bbl. it would be a carter WCFB.
