Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Need help on Carb rebuild

[Davis Martin <martin-davis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am glad I can inspire someone besides myself!

 You should be able to get a rebuild kit from the local store from the #s off what you have now. The 401 was only made from 71 to 78 so look up jeep in those years or AMC Javelin 71 to 74

 That should get ya started.

 I do however agree with Bart. You should get a holley 650 DP off a swap magazine or ebay. I got mine for 50 bucks and it was about 35 for a good rebuild kit for it. They are easier to work on and easier to tune.

After hearing Davis talk about the Team Spirit 401 starting, I braved
the cold and started looking over the engine on my Spirit to get her
going. Thank you Davis!

I need help identifying what carb I have so I can get a rebuild kit
for it. The carb looks like a Motorcraft 4300... It is a 4 barrel
carb with a stamp of Motorcraft on the front top, but no tag or stamp
anywhere on the carb that I can find. I cleaned up the bottom edge
and the sides and couldn't find anything.

The only thing I have to go on is the following info on the electric
choke: 4FBS 3M218 RB 2KT1-4V.

This carb is mounted on an Offenhauser intake (360) which is on the
401 in my '79 Spirit. Someone did the initial transplant and I don't
have a clue yet as to what year the engine is.

Any help would be appreciated,
Ralph

Ralph ditch that Motorcrap 4v,and get you a Carter,Edelbrock or Holley 4v carb at your local swap meet,eBay,or buy a new one from Summit or Jegs or P.A.W.That Motorcrap 4v was prob the org. carb on there and is prob wore slap ass out.
