I have removed a set of 40DCOE carbs from a 2L I have and the 2 carbs are different, one is 40DCOE18 with No. 3L , The other is 40DCOE18 with 2162 R as its Number. Are these two units compatable or do I need to match one or the other, If so which one is 'better'.
Thanks

maybe this will help.
Both of these were on the 2L and I really never got around to getting the car dialed in, it started and ran and that is about as far as I got with that project. I am looking to put these in my 74, plus some 10548 cams. So which one should be matched and can you swap out some jets and keep them both?
any help ?

  3. SPICA Throttle Body rebuild

    Carburetors, Fuel Injection & Air Intake
    Hello all - Forum member John Jeffries kindly gave me a spare set of SPICA 2000 throttle bodies that I want to rebuild. My fully rebuilt, Ingram pump'd 2000 motor runs wonderfully but I suspect it having an air leak at idle as I have a persistent vacuum thru the bodies and have done all, yes...

    Carburetors, Fuel Injection & Air Intake
    I know this has been covered before. I've been trying for a week to fix a leak from the copper washer of the center bolt on the front fuel filter. I tried all the ideas from other posts like, sanding the old washer with 600 grit, I even heated it up and cooled it down to soften the copper, I've...

    Carburetors, Fuel Injection & Air Intake
    As you could read here: https://www.alfabb.com/threads/roadtrip-john-stewart-posts.689929/ a valuable source of this forum is gone . The second irreplaceable loss to the forum in only one year. And if you need to find posts from John you should use number 144 instead of the quoted 441...
