That one is for a 390 with automatic transmission.

1968 S code Holley with 4 speed is numbered - C8OF-9510-C.

Cougar must have the same Ford part number book I have. Automatic 390.

Boy what a filthy carb! I rebuild and rebush them. That dude needs a thorough cleaning!

Cool, thanks for the reply,

I will have to keep my eyes peeled at the swap meets this spring for a "C" model.

And kill the fun of stomping through the Portland Swap meet, in the rain and wind!!! No way!!! Nothing can beat the exhilaration of finding that rare part under a tarp or plywood table booth! And for a bargain… Well, until you get it home….. Find out what it will cost to refresh….. Missing pieces….

A sickness for some….. But love for others!

Hey if you guys are going to Portland, we need to hook up. I go every year (except last year) and have a room reserved at the Best Western across the freeway.

I was at the puyallup high perf swap meet yesterday. A guy had a rebuit "C" model for 495.00. Thought that was fairly steep as it was not finished in the correct anodize color.

I did pick up three taillight assy and harnesses out of a 64 t-bird. When I took the lens covers of too look for corrosion, there was none! Clean and shiney, sockets were like new. Felt I did good on that deal.

I will be heading to Portland Saturday Morning for the day.

I will have to check the poney carb web site.

Oh, by the way Cougar CJ!

There was a green 67 XR-7 390 S code cougar there for sale, asking 6K. Had the Marty report, very decent condition and tempting.
