Can't Identify My Holley Carbs.

I bought an 81 a little while back. This winter my plan is to tear everything down, clean, replace gaskets



and reassemble. I wrote down everything I could find on the carbs. They are both Holley 2 barrels. Rear carb shows 3182 on the upper flange, and B-5. On the body its has 12R 5490 B, C5, D5. Under the upper flange has 1R 1262 B, A5. The lower flange has 0874.
The front carb has 1964, and a B on the upper flange. 12R 5490 B, and C on the body. 1R 1262 B under the upper flange. 2484 on the lower flange.
Any help would be greatly appreciated I've been searching everywhere and can not find a match. I am hoping someone here is possibly running the same setup.

I could venture a guess and say they came off of Ford Escorts, but it's only a guess. Maybe a Pinto?

I've been searching the internet and can confirm they are ford pinto carbs. Some sort of non choke version, I still can't figure out a model number for the carbs in order to buy rebuild kits. The choked version is almost the exact same but has minor differences, anyone know if the kits would be the same between both?

Car runs perfect, I have not tested each side of the line. I'm just trying to identify what these Holley's are just incase I run into issues in the future.

Custom intake too it looks like but well done. Similar to a dual DCD setup in many ways. I bet it screams.
