source for '66 carb kits, ignition, etc
What is a good source for a carb rebuild kit for my '66 F250, 300 cid, 1 bl carb?
Does anybody know what carb came stock on my truck, Carter, Holley, etc? It's a 1 bl.

Your local parts supplier should be able to locate these items for you easily. Be prepared to provide a carb#, we often have to ask, and if the carb has ever been replaced, giving year, make, model could lead to getting the wrong kit. (And you may not realize its wrong until you open it and start the rebuild, at which point, you may not be able to return the kit.........) TomD

Believe Ford and Holley 1 bl came with the 300ci 65/69, and Carter 1 bl came out 68. Should have a reference # on carb. Not familiar with the Ford carb. and whether can still find rebuilds or replacement parts. May want to consider going with the Holley, seems rebuild and/or repair kits little more available. Perhaps more knowledgeable member can advise. Should be able to locate parts, and or rebuilds at local parts supplier. Would go to an online catalog parts supplier like Summit racing equipment, or simular and compare prices. Holley Performance has a web page with lot of info with a local supplier referral page.

Autolite 1101 -- Carquest had the kit for mine, which in fact I think I have laying around. I ended up swapping to a Carter YF.
The autolite was stock at least. Yours could have been swapped out along the way for pert near enyhting.
If unsure, post a pic or two and I am pretty sure that someone here will be able to positive ID it.
