    88 carb on an 86?

    Just like the thread name, can i use an 88 carb on an 86 car? I'm sure it will bolt up correctly but will i have all the appropriate hoses? Thanks for any help.

    so do the carbs on 86 - 89 work or are interchangable for all of the years in question?

    well when you replace the carb you should replace the 2 gaskets that go on the EFE plate.
