RE: History of the Autolite 4100 4V carb
By Mike McQuesten - 05/25/2001 12:17:27 AM; IP 63.50.124.180
I'm not disagreeing with you Ed about the marvelous performance of FoMoCo in all years. I just would like to know more about where you got your information about those 4100 HIPO carbs with manual chokes on Ford products from '64 - '67. I've seen quite a few Hi Po 289s and Shelby GT350 Hertz Mustangs. They all had automatic chokes. They also were cast with the 1.08 float bowl. That's right, even the 271 HP. The last 1.12 Autolite 4100 4V carb that I ever saw stock was on a '62 390 Ford vehicle. I took it off a Merc Park Colony and have run it on a number of FEs. I've got a good friend who specializes in 4100s, he loves 'em and always gives me a hard time when I run a holley. By the way, why did Ford run Holleys on the 352/360, 390/375, 406/385, 427/410, 390 GT, etc.? They should have been running those 669s! I mean it. I've looked a long time for one of the fabled 1.19s. I know a few were built but I don't believe they were after 1959.
