I'm in the process of switching out the manifold and 2bbl Rochester on my 66 YD 389.
I'm going with a manifold and 4bbl Carter from a 65 YF 389.
Is there any info or advice I need to know by doing this switch? Looks to me that it will be a direct replacement with no hassles. It's in a 66 Cat with turbo hydramatic and a/c. Should everything connect right up? Accelerator linkage, vacuum line for the tranny etc? I'm pretty sure the camshaft for my YD is different than the YF. Any issues there?? Thanks...

Piece of cake - direct swap.

Hey, thanks. Looking forward to getting it up and going. While I have it down I'm replacing the water pump, hoses and fuel pump.

Thanks...
