2bbl autolite 2100 VS motorcraft 2150 wich one you preffer? and why

[juit 34]

I have installed on my 302 a working 2 bbl autolite 2100

 

in the shop that I go and visit from time to time they were going to throw a motorcraft 2150 so I rescue it from the old metal wagon :nono:

 

do you think that this carb work better than my autolite?

 

wich one you preffer? and why

 

also the 2150 carb dont have:

 

Choke pull-down diaphragm

 

Choke housing

 

Throttle positioner solenoid with dashpot

 

some other pieces

[juit 34]

anyone alive?

[ramair351 10]

as long as the both work the same, i would just pic the better looking one. i prefer 2150's myself

[juit 34]

well the 2150 is missing parts I could rebuild it slow but I will need to look for donors

 

121 jets are over kill for 302?

The 2100 is a huge runner for Ford. A success story, it is used on so many cars from 1968 to 1975. It is simple and easy to maintain and has a lot going for it. I don't know of any advantage of the 2150, so why bother?

I'm in the process of rebuilding a 2100 out of two carbs. I just put on a Holley 500 which I normally like but my mileage went to the crapper with it. So I will try the franken 2100 and see how it goes.

Jim,

 

I have my original 2100 but it has several broken parts (I think mainly the choke linkage) and might be interested in your leftovers.

[Jimjific 23]

Ed,

 

Sure, I will post my extra parts when done.

[juit 34]

if anyone have leftovers of an 2150 it would be great

[zach69grande 25]

I might have some 2150 parts - I ran one on an old jeep cj for years. the only difference between the 2150 if I remember correctly is there was some sort of altitude compensating circuit

[juit 34]

someone gave me 1 carb but this one didnt had the variable high-speed air bleeds system

[Rcodenewf 44]

I have several 2150's on the shelf. Some are brand new as they were used for demonstration in a college and a couple came from a ford dealership.

 

I can sell them pretty reasonable to you as they are just taking up space. Let me know ....I can post a few pics if necessary....thanks...John

[juit 34]

it will cost a lot to ship them to the states?

[Rcodenewf 44]

I can put them in a box and get a rough cost for you if you like?

 

Give me your address and zip. How about $50 for all carbs in the pictures plus shipping.? I don't think a couple of those have had fuel in them. Note the one still has the idle mixture limiters on it.

 

There are a few small pieces missing from a couple but you can certainly build i'd say 3 out of the 4 for sure.

 

Let me know if i can help....regards....john

[juit 34]

can you calculate the shipping? send me a pm with specs venturis also

[Rcodenewf 44]

Will do...i'll be in touch.

I have the Motocraft 2150 and like it. I live at 7000 feet but do not notice a difference between any other carbs. I have only had the 2150 on my mustang but I have a 77 f150 Ranger and that has an autolite. Can't remeber the modle number but probably a 2100 since it has a 302. Both work the same if you ask me.

[juit 34]

does it has the variable high-speed air bleeds? Im digging that idea, i found a 1.08 jet on the carbs that Im taking apart, Im wating for a nice core to start building it

I might take you up on that offer if no one else does, those carbs have a lot of good parts I could use and I actually need a decent 2v carb for the stock 351 2v in my 69 cougar right now

[juit 34]

still waiting for the quote :), I think I will have 1 in working condition do anyone knows which is the rebuild kit for this carb?

[Rcodenewf 44]

Sorry for the delay. Not forgetting you. Had company that just left and i'll get it for you within a day....thanks...John

[juit 34]

thanks, no hurry :)

[Max Power 74]

Honestly, if you don't take a box full of practically free carbs because you are hung up on shipping, this is the wrong hobby for you.

[juit 34]

ha ha ha ha XD sadly this is not my only hobby, paintball takes a lot of my cash, aquaponics takes also its toll: ,

 

Im considering dropping paintball but hitting people legally makes it tough to leave it :sneaky2:
