1966 Toronado

I need a good used 4barrel carburetor for my Dad's Toronado, the one we have has the fuel filter fiting threads striped out. Does any body have a repair kit for such a problem?

This is common with Qjets and several vendors sell repair kits. You can either get an oversized helicoil or a self-tapping replacement fitting. I've used the latter with no problems. Search dormanproducts.com
