Hope so!

Jessiezm rebuilt a set of 400 carburetors for my 350 F.

Runs fantastic!

350 carbs run #35 pilots and #75 mains, and 400 carbs were stocked with #40 pilot jets.  I think the emulsifier tubes might be slightly different, too, as the part numbers are different, but I've never compared them side by side.  But for all intents and purposes, they are the same.  Oh yeah, 350 air screws were set what 7/8 turn, and 400 is 2 turns plus or minus 1/8 I think.

Don't care.  :P

Sync'd up beautiful, runs strong and idles like a sewing machine. Couldn't be happier.

(More rebuilds coming your way.)

No, I got my answer.  There's a set of 350 carbs on ebay that are in way better shape than mine so I'm going to buy them and put my 400 needles and jets into them.
