Default 3605 Carb base plate

1966 327-300 Powerglide with A.I.R.
Built Apr 22, 1966

Carb: 3605

Just found out my carb base plate is cracked at the AIR intake.

Any suggestions? Is it possible to buy just a new base plate? Should I have mine welded? And if so, will it tend to warp?

Thanks.

Jerry MacNeish (www.z28camaro.com) is a wizard with aluminum, and can repair that baseplate - he's done lots of them.
