Need Carburetor Advice

Guest

Time to replace the old Autolite, I think. It's a bone stock engine in a '72 pre-L, and it stumbles if I give it too much gas. The carb's been rebuilt once before. What's a good replacement?

If the carburetor is a Autolite/Motorcraft 4300D (spread bore) there is no direct replacement, replacement will require a change of intake manifolds too.

In my opinion there is no better carb for a stock motor than the 4300D.

A good rebuilder for the 4300 is Pony Carburetors:

Thanks, George, that's exactly what I needed to know. I ordered the 4300D from pony.
