360fe carb question

Hi guys, I just got a 69 f100 with a 360fe in it. It hasn't been on the road for many, many years. I'm looking to put a edelbrock carb on it. The question is, does edelbrock make a 2 barrel carb that will work on the stock intake manifold or do I need to swap the intake, or run a 2 to 4 barrel adapter? I would really like to run the stock 2 barrel intake since it is going to be a work truck not a hot rod. Any help will be appreciated.

Rebuild your Autolite/Motorcraft 2100/2150. They are a simple, reliable and cheap carb.

Or you can get a Holley 2300 carb that will bolt right on.

No one mentions any edelbrock 2bbls.

For the use you describe the 4bbl is a waste of time and money.

rebuilt the 2100 on mine. it was burning hot. previous owner had too small of jets. after rebuild and fixed the wonky set up on the manual choke. things started running a ton better. I have a box of spare parts off ebay spring/jets/linkage screws a plastic tub of spare parts. I only needed a few parts but it was a grab bag of items. if you need something I can fish around.

Yah It's a west coast f100 4x4 with a 360 in it. It runs, but it needs a ton of small stuff, and a few big things like valve seals! Ps I love the ranger xlt
