Does anyone know of the correct part #(and who makes it) for the carb to manifold gasket , 67 383 4bbl? Also open or 4 hole?
Rockauto has it as a felpro 60159 OEM as 2843594, 2899145, 2951602, 3462833
Just to add a quick additional note to Rich's excellent information, it would be a 4 hole gasket if you're running the original factory intake manifold.

Thanks guys; used to be I would just walk into the auto parts/speed shop and grab one from their selection hanging from the pegboard. Now they don't keep any on hand and nobody knows how to look it up without a vin # !Smile
FYI that gasket is an open gasket, I assumed it should be a 4 hole also.....
I always get a kick out of: "is it a 2 door or 4door"?

I hope that you won't mind me disagreeing with you on that, but you should match that gasket to the intake manifold design. The factory dual plane intake manifolds used for four barrel applications are normally a four hole design as shown below in picture #1, the aftermarket single plane intake manifolds as shown in picture #2 below use the open design gaskets.

I agree 100% on matching it to the intake design; it's going on the stock intake manifold as pictured. If I look up the fel pro # it comes up as an open design.

You have to be very careful when looking at aftermarket part numbers online. I just purchased a NAPA mechanical fuel pump a couple of days ago for the 318 in my sons 1972 Dart Swinger. The online NAPA part number ended up being incorrect so it had to be taken back. When they did further research in the store they found a completely different part number for the correct fuel pump which fit and works perfectly.

The gasket for your stock intake manifold will be a 4 hole design, so if you go to a parts store in your area just let them know what you need and they should have one in stock. I know that a local speed shop close by my home stocks both styles of carb to intake gaskets on their wall display as well, so that's another source for you if needed .

If you are looking at aftermarket 4 hole gaskets be aware that there are different gaskets based on hole size. Such as Mr. Gasket 55C, 48C and 57C. I believe the 57C is the small bore version.
