I have two Carter YF's on my 261. They were pretty commonplace on the earlier Jeeps. Direct swap as I was told.

Yes , simply measure the base width before paying for it... If this info comes too late , go to Flea-Bay and buy a junker YF with the correct base and change it to the cood early YF you allready bought , drive happy forevermore . -Nate Tevor wrote: > > Anybody know if the Carter YF will work on a 235? > > Trevor Ole Chevy and GMC trucks rule!

Re: [old-chevy-truck] Re: Carbs and such
There was a YF made specifically for the 235 but most are for the 216. I have an aluminum adapter that lets you put a 216 carb on a 235. I've only seen the one in my lifetime, but it could be fabricated at a good machine shop. I'll post a picture of it on my blog site when I get a round tuit.
