Ok so here is the deal... my carb has crapped out on me...its a 2 barrel from a flathead ford v-8...almost impossible to find a rebuild kit at a decent price... I work for an auto parts store and i have a customer of mine who said he would sell me a 4 barrel holley 600 cfm for a good price, I can get a 4 barrel to 2 barrel adapter that will bolt on my intake manifold. Has anybody had any experience with anything like this? Would it be worth my while to do it? I have no clue...

if ur gonna ride the roads,it would be awesome,but the slightest hill it will dump and flood out,4 barrel sucks on hills,unless its an offroad eldrbrock carb

this one is an off road holley...

those offroad avenger holleys are pretty good as long as its in good shape and the floats are set right which is about 3/8 down from sight plug or 3 hexes ........... thats what ive got on my crawler and i gotta bounce it pretty hard before it even thinks about acting up............ what kind of engine you running it on ??????????? mine is a built 350 out of a late model dirt car and was rich and needed rejetting to get proper throttle response......

I have a motocraft 2020 (I think that the #) its the good ford carb they use on TONS of offroad trucks and stuff. Rebuild kit is like 10-15 bucks. You can have it for 50.00

I have a 1641cc motor...small for a 4 barrel...thats my real concern...i know the carb is in good shape and he had it on a bronco that was set up for rock crawling...so i know the hills aren't a problem...I just want to make sure i'm not going way to big...

it probaly will be way to big,its hard to get a weber jetted right for a 1641,buy that ford 2 barrel from kyle and get the 4 barrel and sell it

I can't find any info on the motorcraft 2020 carb...what does it normally fit?

probaly jus and old 302 or 351,i really dont know,ive heard they reall work well,u might try auto zones web site u can search by car or part umber

cool thank you for the help.... Not to down autozone or anything but like i said i work for an auto parts store and i work later on today so i will see what i can find when i get there... and by the way O'reilly auto parts site is much better...



haha only slightly serious.... no i'm very serious... haha ok thats enough...

Thanks for all your help!

ill check theres out always looking up parts

I started out on buggies with a 4-barrel, I had a 2276cc with a Johnny's Fourplay intake and a Holley Off-road avenger, and it sucks BIG time, it runs awesome on the street, but crappy in the woods, I tried everything to make it work....no luck. I ended up trying an Edelbrock Off-road carb and it seems to run better on the street, but way worse in the woods, my advice from my experience with them is to stay away from them and run what is supposed to be on the first place. Like the Webers, Delortos, Solexes, Kadrons, and Progressive ones. It's just my $0.02

Yea the Motorcraft carb is off of a 302. It is a 2bbl. They are awesome offroad carbs. This is what I always ran on my 4x4's. Even had one on a 4.3 chevy with a sqaure bore adapter plate.
