How much to rebuild the Autolite 4100 carb? (assuming it is what is on at present)

They're a good carb and rebuild kits aren't too expensive.

Hi Sue your question has answered one for me as I am considering which carby to put on my own 66 Stang.
From the comments from the others the Holley 600 is the way to go. As for the $400 it seems to be on the money, just make sure that it is for a new one and not a refurbished one as that should be cheaper.
Tony.

Hi Guys
Thanks so much for the responses, I had the mechanic order the Holley Today.
Yeh Tony he says it is a new one.
Kiwibird the original is an Autolite carby not sure what size, But apparently it's so badly worn it would need some part of the body built up and then remachined, very expensive so I'm told. Thanks again guys.
