during the 60's Ford used Autolite as a trade name for a lot of parts. The government for some reason sued Ford and made them sell the spark plug division so Ford started using Motorcraft for their parts and Fram/Allied Signal ended up with Autolite.

The best Autolite Carb guy I know is George Thompson "Carburetor Flow
Engineering". I can look up his number if you want. His cars are always near the top of the field out here in the West!

Got that right Greg !
The OWA4 /OWM4 is a Motorcraft 4300. A temperamental sumbitch of a carb that works good with a stick and fair on a 2 step automatic . unpredictable on a foot brake . Most Ford 351 racers run the Holley where it's accepted as a replacement and take the HP ,but a few stick racers run it successfully. Deuce Coupe has the correct info on the sizes and GTX John is right ,Thompson did the carb I ran on my D/S Automatic '70 AMX, Worked as good as you can get from that carb.
