Good morning, hope everyone is having some good holidays. I am putting a 218 engine out of a 1950 into my 39 P8. Also plan on adding an overdrive R6 or R7 later on. Right now the only carb I have is the one that came off the original 201 for the 39 which is a BB D6A2. I'm looking at rebuilding the carb and was wondering if I should try and get a carb off a later year, such as a 1950 car and use that carb instead. Are there any major changes to the carbs from 1939 to 1950? I see on one web site they have different kits but on others they sell kits that cover 1940 thru 1950 with the one kit. Also I understand there is a kick-down switch that goes on the carb if you have an overdrive trans. Would this carb need a special fitting or mounting that allows for the kick-down switch to bolt up? One more question, there were two number carbs used in 1950: 1950 6 218 P19, P20 city traffic Carter BBR-1 D6N2 1950 6 218 P19, P20 Carter BBR-1 D6H2 What is the difference in the above carburetors?
