carb question

Can I run the q jet off my 72 350 on a 85 model 305 without any problems?

Re: carb question

You sure can!!
Maybe!! LOL!!
Choke will be different and possibly tranny linkage different.
There are different manual tranny and auto tranny carbs.
If the 85 is a feedback carb you might be hooped.
Take a pic of both, we'll tell you if it'll work.

Re: carb question

So it depends how the 85 is set up.
What tranny?
Have a/c?
Do you need a choke?
Have stock intake?
Take a pic of your 72 carb, both sides.
