Are you certain you have a carburetor? 74% of the Caprices that year used TBI or throttle body injection. Check the VIN code, 8th digit for a "E", the most common engine, a 305. As long as it is not a "Y", or 307, you have injection.

You should never need to replace a carb. Cleaned yes, rebuilt yes, but not replaced. If the car is being driven then at most you need to have it adjusted and tuned up. The only time you will ever need to replace a carb is when it is so gummed up from sitting that it can't be cleaned properly.
