Hi guys, I put a 1971 bronco 302 in my '53 mated to a 1978 ford C4 trans. I bought a carb for it with manual choke but it came off some huge truck that had a not popular 330 v8. It was rebuilt but the kickdown linkage is not on the carb. They guy I bought it from is willing to exchange it for a carb that has kickdown linkage on it. I think I need something from the late 60's to early 70's but he needs a part number. So, looking for a part number for a carb from a F-150 that had manual choke with an automatic trans. Any help appreciated.

 

1969 was the last year Bumpsides had a cable choke. And also the 1st year the 302 was a choice in F100's.
C9UF-B,D0PF-AJ,D1PF-AA,D4PE-JA.
On something that MIGHT be close enough to work? There would be WAY too many to list. It would be quicker and easier to have him give you the numbers He has.

 

Thanks for those. Those are carbs that had manual choke right? Also, if they were behind an automatic trans, they would have the correct parts for a kickdown? Was the kickdown a cable or a rod on those trucks? As you can tell I am trying to make this an OEM looking deal, I just need to know what to buy.

 

Yes. The C9UF-B was a 1969 F100 (and van) 302 carb tag with A/T. Since it is a 1969 carb it would have been cable choke. The other tag numbers I listed were replacement carbs for the C9UF-B.
But rather than looking for a needle in a haystack, it better to find out which carbs HE HAS. If he has one for a 360 simply experiment with leaner jets. If it has bigger venturis then it will also have more CFM. But not enough to hurt anything IMHO.
