Hi Everyone,
I recently purchased an autolite 1101 for my '65 200 inline six. The intake on the cylinder head has been bored out from 1.5 to 1.75 inches to accept the larger carb. The carb is also a'65 and has the SCV which will work with my distributer. I know I'm going to need a new carb adapter plate (which I'm working on) to deal with slightly larger mounting holes. Just wondering if there is anything else I need to consider when making this change. Also, I'm running a manual transmission. The carb that I have is for the automatic transmission (that is, it contains the antistall dashpot on the right side). I figure it wouldn't hurt on a manual transmission. You just don't want to use the one without the antistll dashpot on the automatic. Is this correct thinking? Any advice on the switch would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
