Can this carb be used on a 200??

Howdy:
The carb is a 240 version of the Carter YF similar to the carbs used on 200s beginning in the 1970 model year and through 1979. It is probably rated at around 200 CFM. That is an estimate based on inner venturi diameter and throttle bore. You may find the throttle bore larger and bolt spacing wider on this carb then on your engine. You didn't say what 200 engine you're working with so I'm only guessing. More details would be helpful.
Again, depending on details, you may have some linkage, line plumbing and air cleaner issues. Also this carb probably does not have a Spark Control Valve for a '67 and earlier Load-O-Matic distributor.
Details, details, DETAILS!!!!
Oh, and welcome to THE FORUM!!! Yes, it is that good.
Adios, David

Dave,
Sorry for the lack of details about the question. It was late when I wrote the post and realized that I left many things out when I though about it this morning. The item in question is an Autolite 1100. I have a stock 200 engine with an autolite 1100. I have just recently seen an Autolite 1100 with a part number of C6AZ-9510-AS (that is for a 240 engine) that I would like to get. My question is, Will 1100 carb that is for a 240 engine work for a 200? My initial thought would be "yes" but I want to make sure.
Thanks,
Nick

The Autolite carb for the 240 should be the larger 1101 carb with SCV. If you have a load-o-matic distributor and don't mind doing some minor mods to your carb adapter plate to get the carb to fit (it has a slightly bigger throttle plate), then it will work good and give you a bit of a power boost. See the legacy article at the link below and you will read about this mod being done back in the old days.

Howdy back Nick:
The carb you reported (C6AZ-9510-AS) does not show up in any of my reference manuals. In 1966 the carbs used on full sized Ford cars with a 240 six were Autolite 1101s, coded C6AF. The 9510 part of the code is Fordspeak for carburetors.
An 1101 from that year would read C6OF.
As Mustang6 mentions there was an 1101 used on 223 sixes in full sized Ford cars, that has a SCV, but that was only in 1963 & '64.
To the best of my knowledge a 1100 was never used on a 240 engine from '66. IF you have the carb, a photo and throttle bore diameter might help unravel this puzzle. As far as using on your 200- 2hat year is your vehicle? Things like carb hole diameter, bolt spacing, fuel lines, linkage, vacuum needs, and air cleaners woul need to be considered.
Keep it coming.
Adios, David

mustang6,
Thanks for the information. Might have known that there would be some modifications involved but it is all very interesting!
David,
Here is some more info for you. It is on eBay if you would like to check it out.
The Autolite tag is C8AF G

The year of the engine is 1967 as far as I know. It has a load-a-matic dizzy that is set up for a Thermactor system but the Mustang does not have one. I'm not sure if the carb on the Mustang has SCV, how can I tell?
This next one maybe up for another topic: I bought a Pertronix Ignitor II for the Mustang but I have not heard much about it on the boards here. I have heard about the Ignitor I though. Sounds like it is hit or miss with the Ignitor I.
I'm excited but yet a little apprehensive about installing and hoping that it works.
Thanks for working with me on this very involved question.

That carb is a little bit different than others I have seen- it has some of the features of an early style carb (SCV, etc.), but it appears to have a horizontal "pull" linkage setup like a later carb, not a vertical "push" like most pre-1970 cars. Would probably adapt well to a cable linkage. It does appear to be a NOS early 1101 with auto choke, intended for a manual transmission vehicle.

Scott got it right on. It appears, form the Ebay photos to have a SCV to be compatible with your L-O-M distributor. If this 1101 is like others I seen it will likely have a larger diameter throttle bore than you '67 head- which means the top of the carb hole will have to be flaired out so that the butterfly valve does not hang up. The mounting bolts and holes should be the same. If anything the holes in the carb base will be wider. They can be slotted to fit.
Other then some adapting, and assuming the venturi is 1.29" inner diameter, this should be a nice upgrade for your 200.
You really should repost on the Ignitor II. It has certianly had mixed reviews on this forum. Have you done a search?
Adios, David
