Default Holley ID?

Hi All

Looking for a bit of info on a Holley we have

I'm pretty sure it is of a 427 2X4 but is it a Cobra?

List is 3301 date code C5AF-9510-BC

any info would be much appreciated

cheers

Here is one on ebay:

Ford FE Blue Thunder 2x4 Intake and Holley Carburetors | eBay

So you have the rear carb from this setup, no choke mechanism.

the date code will be stamped below the engineering number
that will tell you if it is an original ford piece or a repop.

these are available new....Carl's shows out of stock right now.

Carl's Ford Parts

ok the 743 is your date code

7= 1967
4= April
3= week of the month

to say what car, if any, is impossible. it could have been sold over the counter, or come on any 2x4 factory setup. but all we know now is the center section of the carb...it could have been outfitted with any number of metering blocks over the years....basically its a used original rear carb

Ok thanks

Is there any chance of picking up a list 3300?

Or am I best to cut my losses and go for a pair of 1850s?

btw they would be going on top of a stroked 360 and not a 427

cheers

If you can't get original, why not go for something that will work better?

Like a pair of QFTs, Holley Ultra, or TMP carbs?

Thanks Gary

To be honest I hadn't heard of either QFT's or TMP's

I need something to fit my dual quad manifold so am I not stuck with 4160's?

cheers

Barry at survival motorsports has a bolt on 2x4 setup made with Quick fuel carbs,(QFT)
Survival2x4 Carbs




others here have them on their cars, i haven't heard a single negative report on them so far

Very nice setup there

I like the externally adjustable secondaries.

The manifold is a single plain low riser Offy

cheers

Here's some info:

Carburetors and Carburetor Parts for Drag Racing and Street Rods - Quick Fuel Technology

TMP Carbs | Custom Tuning, Information, Articles and more....

To be perfectly honest, I'd run a pair of Edelbrock 600s, at least you change main metering without having to take the carbs off.

Thanks for the info Gary

I couldn't find the carbs in 'FWB's' set up the catalog (side hung float bowls)

Never thought of using Eddy's do they have the same 'footprint' as the Holley's?

cheers
