Down in So Fla, Holley's are altitude sensitive and overpasses are altitude! Send the Autolite to Pony carbs w/ the engine specs and you won't find a better one. Jon will build it for your car. My old one got 20-22 MPG w/ a cam, headers, and my belief that if there are 4 holes, they should all be used! It has 170,000+ miles on it and Jon refurbished it @ 160K.
Two ways to look at it....
If it's a more race oriented car, and you don't mind occasionally having to tune the carb - Holley.
If it's a street driver, and you don't want to have to noodle with the carb - Autolite 4100. (Pony Carbs)
Of course correct carb sizing is pivotal to what sort of performance you ultimately get, so choose wisely. Dickson

Speaker size for rear deck of a 67 68
Vintage Mustang ForumWill a pair of 6x9 speakers fit in the rear deck of a 67-68 coupe? Or will 5x7/6x8 be the route to take? I don't have a pair readily available to test fit so I wanted to ask before buying either set. If you could post pictures of your speaker setup on the deck, it would be great.- 14

Oil capacity for '74 302 engine in 67 Mustang
Vintage Mustang ForumEveryone, I've been making slow progress, and got the engine started a few weeks ago after not running 30 years. I built it about 1988, and it's a '74 302 block out of an F100. The engine in my Mustang (67) was a mix of a 68 302 block and 289 heads (and it was very dead then). So I never had...- 4
