I had a brand new 3v carb a few years back bolted it on my 427 Comet worked wonderful.

I think I may have a boat load of those diaphrams new in holley package if you need one.  A few minutes ago was digging thru my holley stash and saw them sitting there. Much larger than typical Holley?

Is it a 135-6?  Yup, got them.. Have had them over 30yrs
Unopened holley package if its correct.

My Holley catalog shows the #135-6 diaphram as fitting the Mopar six-pack carbs. How many notch's does it have around the rubber where the screws go that hold the housing together? If it's 6 than it's for the Mopar carbs. The Mopar diaphram is a is a more rounded ( hex ) shape. The diaphram for a 3-bbl only has 4 and is more square. The diaphram for a 3-bbl looks just like one for a normal vacuum secondary carb but larger. If you do find one in your collection I could also use one.

Turns out the one I have on my desk is the Mopar unit.  I know about 30yrs ago did by some new ones for the 3bbl just gotta find em'

Barry, A while back you were looking for the FE oil filter adaptors. Are you still in need? I can pick them up for around 40.00 each if you need some. Do have a few new ones still in boxes now but can get hundreds if need be.  C0AZ-6881-A marked C8AE-6881-A Randy

It would be interesting to see if the whole Mopar tri-power canister could be retrofitted to the three barrel.

Today I got out my three barrel stuff and looked at the primary venturi in the main body, they are close to a 850 double pumper primary venturi shape, not much of venturi neck down for low speed stuff, just a straight through shot.

Dealing with health issues slow to respond.

I will double check pricing tomorrow and let you know price on a dozen, and how soon I can get them.
Maybe we could even do a trade of sorts as will be needing a few pieces for my 416 Build.

I asked holley  at nmra show about a 3 bbl diaphragm they gave me a number to a carb shop .That will make a new one its Daytona Parts in Ormond beach 386-427-7108. I called them and they said to send them your old one and they will make a new one cost will be fifty dollars. Not much more then a carb kit. I have one small and one large 3 bbl I think they are one of the best holley ever made.

Indeed Barry! Spoke with my parts guy today and he confirmed the huge price jump Dealer cost has jumped from 38.00 to 76.41 
New price effective October 1st. I just bought a couple 3 wks ago and paid the 41.xx each.

I can still get them for you but price 84.05 Ea  I had no idea they had recent price jump!  R

A few wks ago when you asked for some I called dealer to see what my cost was. WHen he said 41.xx ea my cost I ordered a couple. Was meaning to get more but kept putting it off.

Just so you know Ford does not plan on producing more and when these are gone thats it.  They did the price jump because they are running low on last batch. They will be obsolete soon.

Had a 66 Fairlane Conv MR 427 to 454 4sp Sidewinder intake 1030 3bbl  10.65 / 133.xx no other carb I tried would run over 130 at all close 129.xx same day same air but that's all I could get LOVE those 3 bbl's. I even tried a modified 930 and changed the secondary dog leg booster with the correct cut out on the drives rear to match the intake. No help.
