62 430 carb swap

Post by wimpy88 » Sun 30. Aug 2015, 20:29

What are the negatives to swapping a 62 2 bbl to a 63 4 bbl?

Have a 63 430 I just pulled from a salvage vehicle. I also have a 62 430 with the stock Carter 2 bbl. Since I now have a perfectly good 4 bbl intake & carb, is it possible to swap the intake & carb to convert my 62 to a 4 bbl?

Thanks in advance for the input.

It should bolt right in , just look for differences in throttle linkages and choke mechanisms.
