First off let me introduce myself. My name is Dennis and I post with some of the folks here over at another Forum but I need some info specific to the type engine/Carb I have and not as specific to the Model Car.
It is a 1972 Ford Maverick with a 200 I6 and it still has the original 1bbl carb. It has been rebuilt before (by the previous owner) but there are some issues that a rebuild just isn't goign to take care of (choke parts and a couple other thing) and I want to buy a new or Remanufatured stock carb for my car....
Here is exactly what my Carb looks like (this isn't my carb but it is just like mine)
The auction says it is for a 1973 MAverick. 200 I6
on the other hand there is this carb
and the auction for that carb says it will fit a 1973-1974 Maverick w/200 I6
Now my car and engine are both 1972 and the Carb is (from what I can see in the picture) Identical to the carb in the first picture. and I know the carb in the second picture is a different manufacturer but looks nothing like the carb on my car and it also says it will fit a 73-74...
My Question is.. are the stock carbs from 1972 and 1973 for the 200 I6 in a Maverick interchangable? Can I put a 73 Carb on my 72 engine without modification or adapter plates???
I know you guys here will know the answer to my question... Thanks in advance for anyone that can give me a 99% sure answer.
