Re: Carb Info??

The Ford VV carb was a 2 bbl design, so many aftermarket carbs will not fit without a different intake manifold.

The VV carb was a great concept, but was used in 1982 only. It was discontinued due to reliability and cost reasons. It's rarity and relative complexity explains the high cost of the rebuild.
Consider using a stock Ford 2bbl carb from 1981 351W. It will bolt on with minimal alterations, will perform better and be cheaper.
