jimkf Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Carb kits and distributor parts are available at kfparts.com.Your car should have Autolite electrics on it. So, looks for the Henry J six cylinder engine using the Autolite parts. They are the same.For the carb kit, use kit number 212905. It's for the Henry J six cylinder YF carb.

jimkf Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Be careful when purchasing a carb kit for your car. Most kits on ebay, while advertised as fitting a YF carb, are actually for the 4 cylinder engines. The gaskets may fit but other parts like the accelerator pump and other items are different and if installed, will give poor performance. Been there, done that.
