    Can someone help me identify this carb? I think it’s a Holly 97? It has a “Ford” and “1-1/16”” marked on it. I don’t want to order the wrong kits.
    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Try a Holley '94', its a 'late' bigbore version - usually most kits will have all the various bore size gaskets. Generally these have the spark valve on the throttleplate, it looks like a powervalve but is intentended for timing control.

    What does it say on the drive side of the fuel bowl? The 1 1/16 carbs are usually from a '56.

    Here is a link to help identify your carb and buy parts. https://www.vintagespeed.com/carbs/. Are you going to use more than one of these on one engine? What engine ? i.e. flathead, y block , etc.

    Most call it a Holley 94 or as said above large bore
    94 means 0.94 of an inch
    What is shown is 1&1/16” , slightly larger and gives a bit more get up and go than the smaller 94.
    A few bits missing from the one shown.
