What carb/distributor P/N# are correct for my 71 road runner

Post by Wizard » Wed Apr 23, 2008 8:50 pm

I am restoring my 71 road runner which the data tag under the hood says built April 30 1971. What would be the correct carb model and part number I need. Also the distributor what would be the correct part number I would need for factory correctness?

Thanks,

As mentioned already, we need to know the engine, and in addition, the transmission and whether it's an air grabber car or not.
