carb for a 312

Broke4speed · Senior Member

I've got a 4-bolt Holley 2100 that I re-gasketed and cleaned up, if that'll help any. It's no teapot, but if you're just looking for a 4 bolt carb, it should fit :).

get ahold of Rottnkid. He may be able to help.

I don't think I've got an extra 4000 kickin' around. I'll take a peak next time I go to our barn but that won't be till the snow melts

Broke4Speed's 2100 won't work on the stock intake

My .02 cents ditch the intake, carb and distributor and try and find a 57 set up. Intake I'd want in your shoes is ECZ 9425-B

can i search for a 57 ford or only monarch or 58 ?...........i can send the one that is on the car for rebuild but i wanted an extra one so i can still drive the car while i wait for the rebuild
the only thing that s modified on mine is the automatic choke ........i had to put a manual choke. i drove it all summer last year .........i have 2 brand new elderbrock that are still in the boxes but i would need an intake that match so i can bolt one on .........they only want around $300.00 to restored the carb

i also already have the kit to upgrade the distributor so i get away from the points system

if i would drive the car far away it would be worth changing the intakes and all that stuff making the car more reliable ..........before i would do that i have a nice complete 351 windsor i could just drop that in .............but my other problem is i already have way to many other cars ready to drive ........and i know where there is a nice 62 plymouth lollllllllllllllll

Part # ECZ 9425 B 57 Fords and Mercs\Monarchs, probably on early 58's aswell. Google the part # you'll find a bunch of info.

I'm going out to the barn Friday if the weather holds up. If I have a Holly 4000 it's yours for the cost of shipping.

i m not sure about where you live.....i know i have to make a trip to Toronto may be before the end of June for hospital stuff
and after i may be going to my sons place in Belleville if you find one i may try to get it ship to that restoration shop for carbs down south or my sons place ...........as long as you got Paypal it ll be easy to get you the money thanks i don t know what a thousand even means is that a teapot lollllllllll

Teapot is a nickname for that style of carb. The 4000 is the 4bbl and 2140 is the 2bbl. All 312's in 56 were 4bbl

So I went to the barn and found 2 one was seized and then this one that is still on the intake. If you want it let me know and I'll pop it off the intake.

PM me your address or your sons and I'll get you the cost for shipping, I'm in the greater Ottawa area. Sorry man but I won't send it to the states for ya.
