59 golden commando
Carbs on 361
I have a 361 in my 1959 SP convert and it only has one 4 barrel carb on it. The engine has never been rebuilt that I know of. I also have the 1959 Plymouth service manual suppliment and it has a picture of a Golden Commando in it, and it shows only one carb
Part no. AFB-2856S (B).
But I do believe that 2 carbs were an option 59 on the 361, and from what can tell from the manual the Part no. would of been AFB-2812S (A) That is the Superpack option on the 318 in 1959. I would assume the 361 carb would have been to big to make dual and probably went to the 318 superpack carbs.
Hope this helps.

that previous post was from me.sorry, I had to re-start my computer and forgot to "log on" to this site again.
Goald thinks 2x4s were available for 361 and thinks the 2812S were the carbs used. The parts book tells us that 2812S was the superpak carb for 318. I cannot lay my hands on my parts book, but seems to me 361 used a different 4bbl carb. As for 2x4 on 361's, it has been discussed previously, and my opinion on the matter should be clear!
