CARBURETORS
The 429 CJ used the Rochestor Quadrajet carburetor and the
429 SCJ used a Holley 780.
Additional details are described below.
(Note: Click thumbnails to enlarge pictures.)
Choke Covers
The 429 4 speed choke cover is shown at left and the 429
C6 choke cover is shown at right. |
Carburetor Gasket
Shown above is an original carburetor to intake
manifold gasket for the 429 SCJ with the Holley 780 (Part #C9AZ-9447-D).
It was approximately 1/8" thick. The CJ with Rochestor used a
D0OZ-9447-A gasket.
|
Carburetor Attachment Nuts
Original Ford carburetors used the smaller nut (shown
at right in each photo) which requires a 7/16" socket on the studs
that attached the carb to the intake manifold. The larger nut (left in
each photo), which uses the 1/2" socket is the common
non-original replacement.

Throttle Brackets
The 429 CJ with the C6 automatic used a spring
(attached to the back of the throttle bracket into a small eyelet) to stabilize the
transmission kickdown rod. The 4 speed and C6 SCJ throttle brackets
are shown at
right. Note they do not have the eyelet for the spring.

Throttle Cables
The 429 Mustang/Cougar version is very difficult to find now if
you need one. Before 4/1/71, it was part #D1ZZ-9A758-A . After 4/1/71, it
was part #D1ZZ-9A758-G (below). The cable was 23.75" long and had a
brown paint daub as shown. Installed view shown at bottom.
