Authenticity reference

1968 428 Cobra Jet carburetor identification

date correctness · reported

Reference Details

Common issue
An incorrect-year, service, reproduction, or visually similar Holley carburetor represented as original 1968 Cobra Jet equipment from appearance alone.
Confidence
reported
Correct value
428 Cobra Jet carburetor checks should use the Ford engineering number, Holley list number, casting date code, and identification tag; 1968 carburetors had running-change details and reproduction differences.
Where to check
Air horn ahead of the choke plate for engineering/list/date markings and passenger-side choke assembly for the Holley identification tag.
