stock carb

Postby 71Sport » Sat Feb 07, 2015 7:30 pm

Hello all , i think i want to back to the stock motorcraft carb for my stock 302 since most broncos owners swear by them. I bought my bronco with this 350 cfm Holley on it and am looking for a new motorcraft carb. where can i buy one and do i have to change out the jets

Pony carburetors offers rebuilt carbs, pretty sure they'll jet them for our altitude. If they need a core you can come grab one of mine.

Yes the carbs for an automatic have the correct linkage for the kickdown, you'll also want to get a electric choke, much easier (when setup correctly) in cold conditions.

btw - looks like pony is now champion, they have a core charge of $100 so you'll want to take me up on my core offer.

They might, I'd send them a email and see what they say.

A "builder" is exactly what you need for a core.

I have a guy here in Evergeen that's one of the best carb guys I've come across. I don't even bother with doing them myself anymore. He's a little slow but he has all the old test gear to check passages and shafts for wear so no headaches on install. His name is Charlie (720) 480-2988 Let him know that Rob from M.I.T. automotive gave you the Number. He will also do a altitude tune for you if it's not your thing.

I got mine here...looks brand new, plug and play, no Muss, no Fuss. Cheaper than anything I found locally, New, Rebuilt, or otherwise. (I paid to have my 2bbl rebuilt 1st LOCAL)...IT RAN WORSE THAN BEFORE THE REBUILD!!! POS 2bbl!!!

They have Carbs for lots of applications.

Mine was $255 delivered/no core not quite a year ago Edelbrock 500cfm - Couldn't be happier!!!
