Vacuum Advance

I recently decided to go the route of an auto lite 4100 for my 66 coupe. The car had a Holley on it when i purchased it with the newer style vacuum advance with the rubber hose. Well I want to go to a steal vacuum advance hose (do to the inability to find the hose adapter for the auto lite.) I cannot seem to find the threaded vacuum advance for a 66. Anyone know where i can find the original vacuum advance with the threads for the steel hose?


I have been able to find the 6cyl vacuum advance, with the threads for the steel hose. Would that suffice, or cause to many dive-ability issues that i wouldn't want to deal with?

what i did was to check my local hardware store for a brass fitting that has the proper size hose nipple that screws into the autolite carb body. that way i could use the vacuum hose.

I did that, but no luck. I guess Ill keep trying though. Thanks for the help though. I guess thats what i get for living in a crappy Sierra Vista.

After checking everywhere else including Lowes and Home Depot(which was disappointing) found a somewhat compatible one from Ace. Tight fit but it worked. Thanks for the help.
