hello fordsix. i was refered to this site by your friends at mustangs and more where ive been a member forever. since ive just purchased another mustang, a 68 coupe with a 200 six, auto ive found myself in a world of trouble. the car is a basket case but im trying to bring it back. the previous owner butchered the carb, the choke is gutted and the linkage (looks like a nightmare) wont open all the way. i finally got the fuel lines, sending unit, fuel pump fixed, now the carb leaks bad. i need a new one. i went to autozone and they had two choices. a model 1100 built by champion (part #6-713) and a model 1101 built by holley (#64-5155). i would just rebuild this one but its been screwed up too badly. all i want to know is which carb should i get? the i.d. tag is missing off mine, but i can tell you is says "mfg. by carter for motorcraft". i dont know if this is the correct original carb. to be honest since neither of the carbs offered by the parts store are carters. i didnt even know champion made carbs, much less for ford. so which should i get, the holley 1101, or the champion 1100? do either of these stand out as the best choice? do either have an electric choke? does one flow more than the other? is one more dependable than the other? thanks for your help. im really new to the whole inline six world, so i hope ive come to the right place. thanks for your help.
