Can I put 1100 Carb for Man Tranny on 200 w/Auto tranny

[1964Comet404]

Good Day! I hope All are enjoying a pleasant one. I was told that the 1100 Carb with One (1) diphragm is for Sixes/6's with Manual Transmissions and that 1100 Series Carbs with 2 diaphragm's are for Sixes/6's with Automatic Transmissions.

Is that True, and if so, can the Man. Tranny version, (single diaphragm) be adjusted or modified for Sixes/6's with Automatic Transmissions?

I have the opportunity to get a great deal on a single diaphragm carb, but I want to know/confirm that it will work on my Six with the double-diaphram Setup.

Enjoy Everything!

I'm sure it would run w/ a slightly different carb. I can't confirm this though, but I don't see why it wouldn't. I'm sure there are many cars out there w/ the wrong carbs on them.

I recently learned via Classic Inlines, in their Tech Doc department, that the Autolite 1100 with Spark Advance is somewhat mated to the Load-O-Matic Distributor. Installing a non-spark advance carb without changing the distributor is possible, but the engine will probably run with very poor performance. I believe as per this Autozone Image / Breakdown of Autolite 1101 Carburetor, that the 1101 has the Spark Advance and will work with the LOM Distributor... but as far as other "wrong carbs"... I think the engine will run like Cr.....
