My buddy picked up a ‘66 GMC 2500 with the 401cu V6 engine. It runs good but had some seepage from the carb gaskets. I’m going to go thru it for him and I noticed on the back of the carb there is 2 holes in the throttle blade plate that goes into the venturi’s. So it’s taking in unfiltered air? Is this normal for these carbs? Should I block them off somehow? It’s the stock carb for this truck. If anyone else has experience with these carbs please chime in! Thanks for letting me pick your brains!
