AT / MT Differences ?

(1/2) > >>

PMD1969:
I have a manual transmission car and have an opportunity to pick up a carb that is correct for an automatic.  What are the differences in the two carbs and can the automatic carb be changed over to run a manual car?

Thanks

 Shouldn't be too many differences. Maybe some linkage differences, but nothing major.

Hmm?  The carb that I am looking at is for the same motor that I have but it is specified for an automatic (mine is a manual).  If the carbs have the same internals that's good.  As for the linkage I guess I could transfer the linkage from one to the other.  I am wanting to use the auto carb for a spare.

Would the internals be the same?

 What carburetor numbers are we talking about here? I can look them up and see what they had stock on the internals.

Thanks for the help.
