What State do you live in?
Our Clipper is a 440-3 V-8 Dodge.
You Stated you are also, looking for a Upgraded Carb.
I have read in past Forum post, Some Earlier 360 Ci Clipper Owners Have installed a Eldelbrock High rise Performer Manifold & 4 Barrel Carb.
We used to own a 1973 Fleetwood Tioga Rv With A 360 Dodge V-8
I Rebuilt Upper End, New RV Camshaft, did Valve Job, High Rise Manifold & 4 Barrel Eldelbrock Performer Carb. It Ran Very Well.
You Stated you Only Have 35,000 Miles that is Great.
I Do have a Complete 1977 Dodge Grille Unit, as a Spare.
What is Wrong with Your???
That is why I ask What State you live in,
Shipping Would Cost $$$$
Please let us know if this helps.
Remember there is a lot of info from Pass Clipper Owners, who have Posted great ideas as well a Hard Knocks problems over the Years, a Great People Here.. :)

Joe & Denise
I have a brand new edelbrock (can't tell the# of the top of my head) it's a 650cfm that will bolt right on. I'll be glad to part with for 100.00 and you pay the shipping.
If you need a gas tank, you are better off having a metal one made in either the 36 or 50 gallon size. I have a 46 gallon metal on mine which I had put in to replace the plastic ones, which will leak over time. I have a mechanic in Stockton, Ca. who can get one made for you and installed. let me know if you want that information. CanineCaravan
