Hey guys I have a 2.8 with a 2700 carb with variable venturi, what do you guys think of this carb? I've heard the 2100 is one of the best motorcraft carbs. I believe my current 2700 needs a rebuild but I'm wondering is it worth rebuilding, or if I should replace it, I am looking for economy and reliability and not performance. what carb would you guys trust and go with for a 2.8
It's a good carb when it's right , got the best gas mileage with that carb before I went to fuel injection, the 2100 is also a good carb when good also , I have a new 2700 I brought and has about 200 miles on it before the engine ran hot and busted the heads , went to fuel injection , were do you live so I can send it to you , later Blaine

was the carb rebuilt or was it a nos? what year is the carb, was it original to you car? does it have a serial number on it? I'm in california, how much would you let it go for?
The carb was NOS in the box , I will get the numbers off the tag this weekend for you , and a photo , will box it up and send it to you , as for what's it's worth I have no idea so try it and make sure it works and later give me what it worth to you , send me a P.M with your address so I can ship it , later Blaine
