need carburetor help
Posted: Mon Jun 30, 2014 8:14 pm
First I believe I have a 144 engine in my 1962 Comet, however not completely sure..(the VIN # says 144) .Looking to rebuild the carb and took it to napa and they cannot find a match. Right now I am getting the numbers off the carb and hoping it can be matched up. I have read elsewhere that there is a letter on the block that will tell me if its a 144 or 170, however cannot locate this letter. any help would greatly be appreciated. This is the exact car (as in the original one) I owned over 16 years ago, very nice to have it back....it is just in far worse shape than when I last owned it..
