That looks dang close! I need to carry in mine and compare.

Fords are straight 4's right? My Oliver is a straight 6. This carb is probably too big. I don't think I'd get rid of it anyway, it's the original and needs a lot of work. I replaced it with an agco I believe.

I would think you could find an old Ford carb somewhere, they made tons of 8n's and 9n's.

Its not a 6! I bet the bowl is to large. You could possible crank down the needle if it is. Im taking mine and having it sand blasted today. If it cleans up nicely ill buy a large kit and rebuild it. If not looks like I get to spend a hundred or so bucks..... :D:rolleyes:

Those old carbs are pretty solid-- cast iron if I'm not mistaken, with lots of brass. The actual bowl shouldn't be a problem to clean up, and a rebuild kit will probably be all you need.
