Hi, i need a new carburetor for my buick regal 1980 the original was a rochester dualjet 210, I purchase this one in ebay, they said it would be compatible but it not have the same pipes and can´t install it, I will return it, I would appreciate any recommendation of which one buy on ebay?

I chose that one for the price but I prefer to save myself problems and buy another one even if it is more expensive but 100% compatible.

With the turbo cars, there was the same electronic spark control, knock sensors, etc that you're familiar with that merged into the CCC system but it was called the TCC back then... by 1980 the TCC which used to be a little back box on the fan shroud had migrated into the passenger underdash area. All the way back to 78 it existed though, just used to be on top of the fan shroud on the really early cars. Amd that was all cars,, not just CA. No reason not to use it if there's there.
Primitive knock sensor system that never worked that well to begin with, and may actually be the reason somebody converted the car to non-turbo, especially if they were trying to run it on regular gas. The first decent knock sensor system did not appear until the 1983 model Buick turbo.

So there! :mrgreen:

It appears to have the bump on the hood. Kind of funny looking a little bit, but arguably correct.
