    i think it says carter next to your hand in the second picture. i think ford started making there own carbs a little later but i'm only guessing. also that carb was found on buicks 340ci of the same years. yeah,i'm bored.

    Yea what he said.
    Good carb in the right hands, so it is worth something.
    It's like the Big Three debate as to which is better. The AFB is a complex carb.
    I have used both, but Holley is more commonplace and easier to get parts for.
    I would list the List number off the carbs and put them on Ebay.
    Take the money and buy Holleys.

    Never heard of a 340" Mercury (Ford)
    I'm not findingf any Fords either steel, but I AM finding a bunch of references to 340's & 360 CHRYSLER'S. I got a dime that's it and Mercury was likely a reference to Mercury Marine aka Mercruiser, not FoMoCo's Mercury.

Vey well could be a Lincoln/ Mercury, like the MEL 383 that was produced from 1958 thru 60 and the 430 that was produced from 58 thru 65, some or most of them used Carter AFBs.
