I have an 86 F350 with a 351W HO motor. The motorcraft carb that is on the truck is in bad need of a rebuild. (Part # E6HEGA-B6D28)Unfortunately Ford no longer sells a rebuild kit. Will a Holley 600 or 650 rebuild kit work on this carb? I actually would like to swap over to an Edelbrock performer series carb but I have no idea what to do with the EGR stuff all over the engine. I'm not sure what stays and what goes
 
I had an '84 351 HO. Parts stores and Ford said they didn't make an HO in '84. Carb had a tag that said built for Motorcraft by Holley. Had a different model number than the '85 and '86. Anyway, if your carb has the tube that runs between the bowls be very careful when assembling it. I must have screwed up an O-ring and had a fire.
Holley had a similar carb with their name on it. I have one somewhere. Could be the Holley kit would work.
 
Daytona Parts should be able to supply a kit if you want to rebuild it. Ask for Gina...super nice folks.
 
After much debate I decided to track down a rebuild kit for the stock carb. One of the guys I work with is a carb rebuild master so the kit and the carb will soon be in his hands. At this point I just need to get this thing running and out of my driveway
 
I had a 87 with that carb and if I still owned it I would have replaced that carb,the idle adjustments were not in the same location as the normal Holleys and a PITA to adjust even with special tools to do it.
