No, it will not work without a great deal of hacking and hassle...

...and even then it won't work well.

What are you trying to accomplish?

Post subject:  something other than a Carter....
you told me once and I cant find the old message about the carb linkage. Was it a 71 year that I had to look for to replace the sloppy set up I have now. Peddle to Carb linkage. The earlier post is just and alternative that Im looking into, like the stombergs, shoot I like the Zeniths better, haven't found too many of those though. did you say at one time, at mind you its been a while, that you might have some linkage stuff around. I have a couple of junk yards that have a few dodge/plymouth vehicles that Im going to scrounge this weekend. put back together the car and would like to upgrade actually from the carter B/B single to something else. to finally answer your question.
thank you for your time.

I'm still not clear on what you're trying to accomplish. You want to change from a 1bbl to a 2bbl carb...? You want to change from rod-operated to cable-operated throttle...? What exactly are you trying to upgrade?

The eBay carb you linked: I've run that kind of Stromberg carb before. When they're set up correctly, they work fine. They are a very uncommon carburetor -- used only on 1963 Dodge/Plymouth big cars (B/C body) with 225 and automatic trans. No other models, no other years. Rebuild kits, floats, and parts are not available (unless you want to pay $150 for a custom-made rebuild kit...! :shock:) which tends to argue against running one of these except as an experimental kind of deal. More info see here.

when this is done do I not have upgrade the carb anyway, or is it just taking off the linkage from the carb to the other carb.


What exactly are you trying to upgrade? I do have the 63 226 with auto trans.

What exactly are you trying to upgrade? I messed up. I want a two barrel yes, eventually run dual two barrels, for looks and for performance

The ebay carb you linked to is a 1bbl, not a 2bbl.
