I need this style bracket from a 1970 or 1971 4300D carburetor. Will buy your carburetor with correct bracket if required.

Still looking for an idle stop solenoid bracket that can be found on most 4300 70-71 Autolite carbs...F100, LTD, T-bird, etc. Sell me your junk carburetor with this bracket. 😉

I do not have a part # for that, much less know where to begin looking for one other than a wrecking yard. My gut tells me you would be better off fabricating a bracket from flat metal as opposed to finding one "out there." The good thing is it does not look like it would be difficult to fabricate a functional bracket, as there is nothing involving a high level of precision. In that situation "good enough" is likely going to be plenty good enough.

I'm not going to fabricate a bracket but appreciate the recommendation. These old carburetors appear on eBay. I'll just keep looking.
 
Perhaps the large carb rebuilder shops would have one they would sell. Just a thought. Good Luck, Chuck
 
A few years ago I downloaded the Parts and Accessories catalogs for Ford 73-79 (could not find one for 1971), and did some ScreenShots for the various Throttle Position Solenoids, which included a few different brackets, screws, etc. I hope this attached file helps.

Quick update, I found a 1965-1972 Parts catalog from Forel Publications that I am downloading, It is quite large, and I have to run a password remove3r on it before I can snap off individual pages or even partial screen screenshots. Once it is processed I will see if it contains any additional info that may be useful

The 1965 - 1972 Parts Catalog finally downloaded and processed so I could snap off a few ScreenShots without losing image resolution. I located the v-8 related Throttle Position Solenoid, bracket, and related parts and dropped them into the attached PDF file snippet. I hope this is what you needded to see for your vehicle.

Hello TexasBoss,
I know this is an 11th-hour response. The bracket, as shown in your illustration, is C9AZ-9J586-A. For some reason, Ford never included the bracket in all carburetor parts lists, even though that particular carburetor used a throttle solenoid (kicker). Even though they were separate from the throttle plate, Ford only serviced some in a carburetor assembly. Another one of those "What were they thinking"?!
The eBay carburetor Sherriff41 posted looks to be your best deal. Right now, there look to be no watchers and no bidding activity. At $20.00 + 16.00 shipping, that is the cheapest option. If for some reason, you dont bid on it or someone outbids you, there are four different new C9AZ-9J586-A brackets on eBay. One has the bracket incorrectly as 9J486, but the part is correct. This bracket will work as long as your solenoid is threaded. The illustration below shows the bracket and one style of the threaded solenoid.
Good luck. :)
