I am trying to identify the carb on the 401 in my '79 Spirit. The carb appears to be a Motorcraft 4300 4-barrel, but all that is stamped or attached to the carb itself is the Motorcraft stamp. On the electric choke, it has the following information: 4FBS 3M218 RB 2KT1-4V
I need to identify the carb so I can get a rebuild kit for it. It sits on an Offenhauser Intake that is marked 360. So, I know the person that installed this 401 may have been adding parts from other cars. It also appears that the cover plate and linkage for the carb for the "3rd & 4th" barrel are missing, so I need to get those also. Does anyone have an idea of what the carb might be?
