Correct Carb for 72 2v?
« on: August 08, 2018, 03:04:51 PM »
What would I look for as far as stampings, tag numbers ...etc in my search for a date correct carb on a 72 w/351c 2v FMX ?
  Thanks,
Scott

Scott,
Welcome to the Forum. Check this Forum's Library for your carburetor's info.

Welcome to the group.  I have a 12/71 Dearborn production date Mach 1 H code 351-2v.  Here are some photos of the carb I had restored at carbontooters and they did a great job.

looks like they did a nice job!..
 My project is a 2/72 date Grande. It did not have a carb when I got it and I'm gathering parts to build it back. I want it to be stone correct as it was built so was needing correct info..
 Using the Carb info from the library I was able to find one quickly!... And learned some more in the process!
