So, use the '8251 carb for pretty much all your big block needs. I believe there is an '8255, but it is almost as rare as the '8253. Next is the '8254 W30 after engine # 8342491, but I have two of those, so they can't be THAT rare.

The only '8255 I have seen on a car outside a car show was on a D headed engine in a Lansing car. May well have been a '68 H/O engine with its original '8255 carb... or a Lansing factory guy with access to anything, who put a '8255 carb and D heads onto some other engine. I cannot recall much about the car except it was very rusty, out of my price range at $1500, and was not a '68. 1972 perhaps?

I have the TSB stating the Engine Unit Number after which '8254 became the W30 carb. Do I gotta find and scan and post that?
oh, here it is, done already

Evidently they used "vac-umm" advance- never noticed that typo before.
Adjust to get 6" [SIX INCHES ?!?!] of vacuum at idle...
Y're welcome.
