Exclamation Original Carburetor

Does anyone know what brand/model carburetor was on the original 1969 351 Windsor?? I went to the BAR ref today with my cobra and the only issue he had was my carb.. So I want to get the original one or a CARB EO carb

I've probably thrown away a half dozen of those over the years!
Wish I had them now.

AS long as we are taking about carorators, is anyone else having any problems with this new gas with the ethanol mix? It seems to break down a bit when it sits in the car if not driven for a few days ,then builds up a residue in the bowls? My car can't hold an idle/

Not a problem on my Cobra as I can tell. Maybe you need a new fuel filter. The good old Holley carb ... I'm not going to say I'm old, but I remember buying a brand new 850 double pumper for $70.

Arrow Sb100!

This is the reason that even with a 66' block I got in line at DMV for a "any carb you want" SB100 number!

Good luck brother, I would have had to change out much more than just the carb.

P.S. Do you have a temp? Are you driving it?
