Wondering if these are hipo numbers?

stevea_old · May 24, 2011 at 6:30 PM

I am in contact with a guy who has some hipo parts and he sent me these numbers and I was wondering if they are correct numbers for a hipo. I don't currently have the correct carb for my 65, but this may be the correct one for a 66 and are they the same?

Thanks

we have a FOMOCO 4bbl carb with manual choke and choke cable P/N C6ZFC A5HC.

also have Hipo Dual Point Distributer Motorcraft C5OF12127 8027

According the application chart in the 66 shop manual, the C6ZF-C carb is for the Hipo. Don't about the A5HC portion.

C5OF-E in the manual, is the call-out for the 66 distributor as well.

I have not gotten a price from the guy, but he says he has a lot of other stuff and he may be selling the stuff to me. Any idea of what the things are worth?

Thanks

Keep in mind that this Motorcraft distributor is a third generation replacement part produced no earlier than 1978 and is not the desirable one for your 65. As 65 rangoon pointed out, the carburetor is a 1966 application.

I'm in need of a '66 HiPo carb depending on the condition of the carb/price for my own car.

Should read -

"C6ZF C"

"A 5HC"

Which decodes as a 1966 HP MT carb (C6ZF C) with rev "A" built 1965 (5), August (H), week three (C). Per Ford Car Parts, Sec 95 pg2.

Spaces have meaning.

When I get more info I will send you an email. I need a 65 carb eventually.
