Re: Will This Carb fit?

The 2111 Performer manifold is a square bore flange intake -meaning they are built with 4 small primary & secondary venturies and would normally require a Holley type carb.. The Rochester line of carbs are normally considered spread bore carbs - meaning they have 2 small primary and 2 large secondary venturies

Be cautious when choosing a carb, because Holley did make spread bore marine carbs, I personally would look at the Edelbrock 1409, it is designed for that engine and intake

Now, you also need to consider if the linkage will fit, or if it will fit with modifications, that I cannot tell you, but I have never found a linkage I couldn't make usable with a little fab work... depends on your comfort level

You can see the difference in bores in this photo - they sell an adapter to make the spread bore fit a square bore, but they normally are frowned on, because they change the RPM of the intake and also cause other airflow problems - so to answer your question.. no, that carb will not fit your intake
