Seeking input for "North East Classic Ford Parts"
« on: October 16, 2024, 09:09:17 AM »
I'm searching for some early Bronco/V8 engine items and the place in my title has some options.

I am wondering if anyone has any knowledge about their business practices, products, and other things that would make me choose them, or stay away.

I am asking because I looked at one of their Autolite 4100 carburetors....just to see what they have.
They state they are professionally rebuilt, they are asking $850, and the photo of the professionally rebuilt Autolite they have on the website is wearing rusted, damaged slot, screws and it looks like the finish came from a spray can.....This makes me go, Hmmmmmm.

I am actually looking for the correct oil pan, pickup tube and strainer, and dipstic tube/dipstick so I can convert a 170ci straight six into a 289 V8 while looking factory when finished.

Thanks for any insights and helpful info.

Have a great day.

"When in doubt, don't."  If none of the folks here have experience with them, then that within itself is an indication that they are an unknown.  Joe-JDC

Joe, you read my mind.

It's a short book, but it serves me well enough.
