Stripped Threads in Carb Inlet Peice
I posted this in the I6 section, and got no responses, so I'm back here again.
I recently ended up with a 66 F100 with a 240 and 3 on the tree. Runs great and just been going through fixing all the nickle and dime stuff. It had a steady drip coming from the inlet to the carburetor. I assumed it was a leaking o-ring, but when I unscrewed it, it fit loose and noticed the threads were stripped on the inlet piece (don't know the exact term for it). Threads are fine in the carb housing.
The carb is a Motorcraft with 3507 stamped on the side. I did some research and was led to the Napa carb kit CRB 25579
NAPA AUTO PARTS
I wanted to see if anyone knows where to source one of these, or if they come in any rebuild kits?

Does it screw into the carb inlet and then the fuel line screws into it? My Autolite 1100 on my 1966 300 6 cylinder looks sort of like that but not quite the same. I'd call it an adapter. Mine is much simpler without the passages coming out the sides or the black tip. I think mine has one of those old Weatherhead logos on it.
I looks like they might have slightly jury-rigged that part in there if it is what I think it is. If it is the adapter I can probbaly take a picture of mine and get thread pitch off of it.

Motorcraft 1100 series would be a 'service part replacement' carb for 1965/68. Motorcraft didn't exist prior to 1973, some 1969's, 1970/72 & 1973/79 240/300's came with Carter carbs.
Original carb ID tag triangular shaped, mounted to airhorn, probably missing by now. Look on the base of the carb for a stamped ID number, post what it is.

From looking at pictures of some of the rebuild kits, they look to have just a piece of pipe adapter without the little valve built in.
ND, I'll try to get some numbers off the carb tomorrow.

I haven't seen your carb but it's the piece that screws into the airhorn where the arrow is pointing, and the part itself is not displayed in this diagram, correct?

I went out and couldn't find any numbers on the base of the carb, and the tag is definitely long gone.

Verify suffix, as there's also: D0PF-9510-AC which is a different carb and uses a different carb kit than the following:
ID number: D0PF-9510-G = Ford part number: D0PZ-9510-K .. Holley 1V Carburetor (Motorcraft CA-745-A) / Carburetor Parts List #95.34F
1970/72 FoMoCo "service part replacement" for specific 1961/69 Holley 1V carburetors.
D0PZ-9A586-A .. 1V Holley Carburetor Kit (Motorcraft CT-223-A) / Obsolete
