    If someone can help me id what secondary bowl I need, I'd be much obliged. Asked Speedway, and even they responded with "we're not sure", which is stupid.

    It's a Holley 390, and it looks just like this, same type logo, etc. This is the only one I find with this type of Holley logo, but it's for a marine carb. What's goin on here gents? I'm becoming confused. Do all bowls have the same bolt pattern? I've rebuilt Holleyz plenty of times, but all the same carb off the 85 Mastercraft we grew up with, and the one of my sbc of my c10. Never had such an issue arise....

    Lil help! Here's a Pic of the carb too...

    Looks like a single feed secondary bowl to me. Marine may mean the coating is different.

    the marine carbs i played with had the none adjustable fuel needle so the bowl would be differnt. you can still get parts from holley they will list a bowl by the list number of the carb

    You should be able to use any secondary single feed bowl with adjustable floats , cfm shouldn't matter ..

    What they said, Holley replacement number is 134-105 but I'd bet you can find a used 1850 cheaper and just steal the bowl.

    I think marine has different vents. Not into the bilge, back to the inlet. Mike

    Here's what's on the 390 that I have on my 215 Buick. Sorry for the strange pictures, it's on the car and I used a mirror and flashlight. Same bolt pattern as most Holleys, side hung, adjustable floats.

    That's exactly like mine. That I can find, they don't make that bowl with the same logo? I can find a single feed bowl no problem, but not with that same Holley logo, even the marine one is different a little bit. So I guess I'm gonna have different logos front and back on my bowls...

    The new Holley 'Classic' carbs don't appear 'Classic' in that sense. You would think they could cast original bowls again. So much for progress :(

    If you need a float bowl I probably have one.
