Okay, so this is for a very old truck...but, I still need one. I'm looking for a Rochester Varajet ll carb model 17081721. It's for a Chevy 6 cylinder. I tried an I-net search and was led to Summit, but still can't find one. Where might I go to find what I need?

Well, I see there are MANY Rochester carbs available, but is there a system set up to understand them by number? Such as the first four numbers (this case 1708) would be the series and maybe the last four are the type? (this case 1721). I see many carbs under the 1708 system, but the last four are all different. If I didn't know better, I'd swear those are the sequence numbers! Can there be THAT many variations of this carb??

Okay, it may be easier to work it this way.... the engine came from an early '80's C10. The carb looks like it was beat on with either a large Crescent wrench or a ballpean hammer! (Almost like having a house dropped on it, Tractor Tinkerer!) I guess what I'm looking for is any carb that would fit a Chevy inline six cylinder with Integral head. So, with THAT info...where can I go? (There's an opportunity!!)
