I need a new carb for my brinco. I have a holley 600 classic with a blown power valve and I don't know how to rebuild it. Any aftermarket 4 barrel will do I think. It is a square bore.

I've got an Edelbrock 1406 (I think?), 4bbl that I don't think I'm going to end up using. Dunno of its condition but you can have it for what I paid Hot Pocket for it, $50.

power valve is like 5 bucks at Eaker performance, easy fix.

They make a part that prevents the power valve from blowing. i think its a check ball or somthing.
K i bought a holley trickit. it has a new power valve and all new gaskets and things
i can show you how to rebuild it.
nothing hard about it, take it apart, clean it, reinstall it the new parts. Nice thing about hollys is there is no adjustment, the jets do the metering. be sure not to let it backfire when starting it for the first time, that kills power valves. you might also get a bowl site window and a bowl vent extension.
Well I got it taken apart for the most part.................now to put it back together...........
Shouldn't be hard. This thread reminded me of work today. I was trying to get this 69 Camaro running that has been sitting since sometime when Clinton was in Office. It has a dual tunnel ram with twin holley double pumpers on top supplied by a holley blue (110gph) fuel pump. After flushing the fuel system and hooking the pump up to a makeshift "gas tank" since the factory one was shot, I flipped the switch for the pump and was reminded of why I hate carburetors. All 4 floats were stuck in the bowls, and as the massive fuel pump built pressure, it shot fuel out of the bowl vents on both carbs. We're talking 3 to 4 ft high streams of fuel coming out of all 4 bowl vents. I was laughing my ass off. Never seen anything like it. I then fired it up with the pump off and let it run off of what was in the bowls and it sounded suprisingly healthy.

it looks like my carb has been recently rebuilt. Everything looks really clean and new. I changed the power valve but i don't know if the old one was bad. I'll try to put it back together tomorrow, if i have any trouble I will call reckless. thanks for the offer buddy
