3258 and 3259 AFB's were the same carbs that was used on the 413 380/385 hp. We've thought they were rated at 525cfm.

On my flow bench my 3258 and 59 were 445 and 450 CFM. 6x3447s I tested were between 597 and 600. 4x3705s were between 696 and 700. An old 3310-1 780 Holley was 788 and a 4780 800 DP was 780. 340-383 AVSs were 625-630ish. 63 383 AFB was 566CFM.

I found an old Carter 'Zip-Kit' booklet,,,,,,,,,,

The #2790 and #2791 AFB's though rated at a general 500 CFM,
were listed at 490 to 505 CFM's.

The #3258 and #3259 AFB's though rated at a general 500 CFM,
were listed at 510 to 525 CFM's.

Besides the size of the Secondary Venturi, all components appear to be the same,
Jet size
Metering rods
Springs
Accelerator pump

Both use the same 'performance rebuild kit'.

I love this last photo of Callahans car.
The first muffler scam ! .....Just think of how many of those Thrush glasspaks were hanging on the back of Stockers like a car club plate.

Hemi Moose, That nice red '62 Plymouth looks like Mike Wiley's. ...It actually was a 4 door car that Mike turned into a 2 door post body.
Mopar Max did a nice feature on it a few years back.

1968,,,,,

Heavy competition for the 383/343 HP in D/SA (9.50 - 9.99 Wt/Hp)

The 62' Plymouth 'Sport Fury', Dodge Polara 500 and Dodge Dart Model #440 got to tangle with new competition;

67' Ford Galaxie 500 LTD with the 427/410 HP
68' Oldsmobile 4-4-2 with the 400/360 HP
68' Pontiac GTO with the 400/360 HP 'Ram Air I'
68' Camaro SS396 with the 396/325 HP
68' Nova SS396 with the 396/350 HP

1968 Winternationals D/SA Class Champion
Pete Kost,,,, 68' Olds 4-4-2 (400/360 HP),,,,,,,,,running 12.70's.

Pete Kost and his 68' Olds 4-4-2 didn't have to contend with Dave Kempton,,,,

Because, Dave went with a 62' Plymouth Belvedere 383/343, which was lighter than his 62' Sport Fury, and
was classed in C/SA.

Yes, Dave won C/SA with the 62' Belvedere, as he knocked off the 'hot and factory-backed' 68' Ford 428 Cobra-Jet Mustangs
that were running in C/SA.
A 'big upset' is putting it mildy.

A 383/343 HP combination got the D/SA Class back at the 68' Springnationals though

1968 Springnationals D/SA Class Champion
Tom Wilson,,, 62' Dodge Dart Model #440 (383/343 HP),,,,,,,,running 12.70's.
