    Hi Mr D and welcome,
    Some carbs adapt easier than others
    Check:-
    the correct diameter to plug into the carb connectors?
    the correct spacing between the carbs?
    It don't have to be on #2 carb but it needs a vacuum advance connector.
    The more differences there are, the more effort it's gonna take.

      What is your reason for switching carbs? With your list there you are not going to get any improvement ad you would with zrx carbs or the like. You would just be swapping old carbs for old carbs.
