It was 4 or5 years ago when I was looking for new floats. I checked again here on the xref for floats. 55-fuel,ex. did not find it. Seems there are threads here as new as a year ago about problems finding new float assems. Does anyone have a part # and price for them from daytona? 2 required +their kit to compare to sending one away for rebuild?


The # listed in the xref google searches as a fuel tank float$10.95

This has developed into another worthwhile thread. Clipper 55 makes a good point on the secondary bowl not being able to drain. When storing a car, I like to run the carb dry because despite my intentions,it may not see the road for some time.
These 4 bbls would benefit greatly from removing them and flipping them over to drain when storing. It' s much less work than a rebuild every couple of years.

I stress again. I would not trust used floats at any price unless you want to roast marshmallows. Ask me how I know.
