  • C4OF-AL Carburetor

    This carburetor has an aftermarket manual secondary conversion kit. Not a big deal to remove.

  • C4OF-AL Carburetor

    Here is an Ebay auction for a C4OF-AL Hipo carburetor by Ebay member "satelite65" with a Buy-It-Now of $1,500.00:

    This is a used early 65 Mustang 289 HP carburetor. This carb has been sitting for years, it will need a rebuild kit installed. Looks like a nice clean core.
    I'm selling this for a friend, I am not familiar with these carburetors so ask as many questions as you need to.

    I will ship via FedEx ground fully insured, this means it will require a signature for delivery.

    Thanks for looking.
    Let me know if you need more pictures, or have any questions.

  • C4OF-AL Carburetor

    This carburetor is NOT the real deal at all. Here is the email that I sent the seller on 4/6/2019 and I have never received a response from the seller nor have they changed their description. Caveat Emptor!!

    I am just trying to help you out here. I am sure that you are NOT intentionally misrepresenting this carburetor. The problem is that someone in the past has made this one up as none of the pieces are what you believe them to be. First, the main body does not have the cast in stop for the choke fast idle cam. While we are on the choke fast idle cam, it is a reproduction made by Pony Carburetors a number of yours ago. Therefore this carburetor was most likely converted by them as they did this as a regular service at the time. The main body casting should have a date code of 11-5-63 cast into the underside of it as that was when the majority of the Hipo castings were produced. The protrusion in front of the choke fast idle cam was originally for mounting the automatic choke and is shortened on the Hipo carburetor to clear the manual choke linkage. Being as they were originally drilled and tapped, Pony filled them in as yours is. The air horn would not have the extra brass tube coming out of the right hand side for the heat riser to an automatic choke and the hole would be cast shut. The rear booster is correct as it is a BA and generic. The main booster is incorrect as it would be an M. The C5OF-L tag actually is correct as Ford was changing the tag when they stopped using the road draft tubes on the engines.

    Please contact me if you need more information.

  • Dual Point Distributer Points and Condenser

    Quote from Morsel


    [quote pid='538' dateline='1556714956']
    Jason,

    DP-6 is the actual correct number for the points. The DC-13 condenser is for single points and has the mounting tab towards the end of the condenser. A DC-6 is the proper condenser as it is setup for a side mount tab on the condenser. Some come with the side mount strap loose in the box.

    Yes, I do have these in stock.

    -Fred-

    Thanks for the info Fred, I was making sure because I have an Autolite TKF-14 tuneup kit and before I crack it wanted to make sure it's contents are correct for what I need out of it, plus I really want to see if it has original Autolite Star BF-32 plugs in it ;)

    But really didn't want to pop the seal if it's not what I need.

    The Autolite Star plugs had long since gone away before Ford came out with the tune up kits in the cans. Bummer!!!

  • Dual Point Distributer Points and Condenser

    Quote from Morsel


    Hey all,

    So can you use DP-6 points or do you have to use DP-5 in our dual point distributers? Specifically talking about 65/66 distributers. Also what condenser part number should it be as well, DC-13?

    Thanks,

    Jason

  • Used 5 Bolt Hipo Engine

    Quote from Scode67FB


    I guess there just isn't enough demand for these engines. I have basically the same thing, a .030 over 5-bolt HiPo engine (minus HiPo rods), for sale $1000 cheaper than that one and have had almost no interest in it. Mine has forged pistons and includes the flywheel.

    I actually have a couple of these myself sans flywheel but with Hipo rods. I have not been actually trying to sell mine, though.
