I wouldn't buy one rebuilt. Too much money and most likely has cheap components in it. I would scrounge junk yards as there are several different CFM ratings available. Check for these casting marks on the side of the fuel bowel.Buy a quality rebuild kit from FORD. 0.98 190 CFM 1.01 240 1.02 245 1.08 287 1.14 300 1.21 351 1.23 356 1.33 424 And as stated, HOLLEY jets and other components will work in them.

Sorry Gary, but Holley jets DO NOT fit Autolite/Motorcraft carbs. The FoMoCo jets are larger. Only very early long snout accelerator pump Autolite carbs used Holley style jets.------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA & SS/MA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,'03,& '04 First SS/MA in the TENS!

I stand corrected. It was my belief that they were interchangeable up to about 1964.

Why not rebuild it yourself? It's a very easy carb to rebuild. Probably only cost you $25 or so for a kit, filter, float, and thermostat coil.------------------ '70 Mustang Mach 1 351C 4V/FMX/3.25 Open '70 Mustang Convertible 250 I6/3 speed/2.79 Open '72 Mustang Sprint Hardtop 351C 4V/FMX/4.30 Trac Loc '94 F-150 XL 5.8L/E4OD/3.55 Limited Slip

I just noticed that Steve. Oops! Duh on me!
I thought he was talking about a 2300 all along. Sorry.
I agree with Steve 100%. Rebuilt your Autolite yourself and save about $100. ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA & SS/MA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,'03,& '04 First SS/MA in the TENS!
