New 94 Carb Holley 94
 

Wanting to source for a friend:
A new made in USA Holley 94 Carb. Primary Carb use
Looking for the above carb for a friend most on Ebay seem to be of China origin. Can get the Stromberg 97 in NZ but its a Holly 94 he wants.
Appreciate any assistance.

Why does everyone want a new foreign made 94 when so many originals are still out there?

Re: New 94 Carb Holley 94
 

Here is a reply from a query on a carb for sale on Ebay


New message from: performanceoverstock
No, these new units are neither genuine Holley, or made in the USA. These new castings are produced in China and assembled by us here in Jacksonville FL.
Thanks
So the ones for sale from Carpenters, C & G, 3rd Generation are the real deal?
Note these new carbs come without the regular 94 or Ford markings.

Mac VanPelt sells new 94's, very high quality.

Re: New 94 Carb Holley 94
 

So, again my question. The new carbs are not made in USA, nor Ford, nor Holley, and not correct for the Concourse. With all the excellent original carbs available, why a new wannabe?

Some years back while on. Tour of Carpenters museum I ventured into a room (possibly should not have been in there) where new 94 carbs were being assembled. All the boxes containing the many parts were labeled “made in China “ I know others have contested my statement but I seen it with my own peepers.

Well Tony have already had this confirmed from another carb supplier in USA.
Not one of the well know ones on this site.

Castings are done in China shipped to USA then built in USA. Again nil 94 or Ford casting ID's on carb bodies.

Re: New 94 Carb Holley 94
 

Your best bet is to call VanPelts. I spoke with Shelly and they still have a few US made carbs.

For the price of those new 94's that Vanpelts sells ($495), you can buy two complete and rebuildable used 94's and make then look and run like new.

Re: New 94 Carb Holley 94
 

If anyone is interested, one of our members has taken the plunge and purchased one of the imported 94's for what seems to be a very reasonable price. He seems to be quite satisfied with it. Check out this thread, especially post # 18 : https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=341534.

Unfortunately Ron, I don't believe that has happened yet.
