hi every one, I would like to start by wishing everyone a merry Christmas.

I came across a stromberg ww carb at the junk yard. It was under the drivers seat of a slant 6 van.

I plan to play with it and see if I can get it working.. (just for fun)

It has 056 main jets, and the the power valve I can make out a 68.

the #'s stamped on the out side is 237200. I think it could be a 2-372???

Does any one know what I could expect if I put it on a stock slant 6?
Are the jets on the bigger or smaller size for my 82 d150?

I would like to get good performance and as much mpg as possible.

Any info would help greatly.

If anyone can tell me the jet range for this carb it would help me alot.

I have used a stromberg before. I was off a 65 Dodge van with a 318. It had good power but not so good mpg. I do know that you can't compare jet sizes between different manufatures. So while that size jet on an Autolite would be grossly over rich, lt may be close on a stromberg.

I got 22mpg out of one on a trip, just like a 318 sized Holley 2bbl. Stromberg carbs do not have power valves.

I got a dissasembled one the other day. Missing some screws.

the stromberg I took apart does have a power valve. That is what the stromberg parts listed it as. As I said, it was under the seat of a van with a slant 6 at the junk yard, I only suppose it was at one point used on this van. I dont know why it was removed!! I will kit it and see what happens, I only wanted to know a little more about the jets and go mid way on the size. I wanted to avoid taking it apart as much a s I could.
