Info on Holley

My buddy just happened to have this laying around his garage attached to a racing beat 12a intake. Im wondering if it is truly a racing beat preped carb?
Its a Holley 600 Model 4160, # on it is 1850-5. If anyone knows if this is a racing beat carb it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Justin

Oh and this was the air cleaner on it

The nipple in the 3rd pic is for the OMP line to connect to, looks like the same one as on my 650 so I'd venture a guess that it is.

i say no. two things that gives it away for me: 1- is the throttle linkage connection. what comes on the RB carb is completely different. 2- RB carbs don't have any vac ports on the throttle plate. u can also pull the primary bowl off and see if there's a power valve. RB replaces it with a plug.

and that nipple for the omp line can be bought bout near anywhere.

Yup, just the one. A for the linkage and vac ports, mine has the same linkage and does have vac ports. One is for the brake booster and the other I have the vac advance hooked to, I think there is one more I have capped off but I don't recall.

It doesn't have the omp actuator rod attachment from racingbeat.

You'll want a double pumper any way...
