Carb swap

I just bought a 86 f-150, my fist truck. Anyway I don't think the carb is working right. It has the one barrle and I was thinking of puting on a Holly 580 CFM (I think) from a 85 Mustang. Has this been done? Where do I get the manifold? Sorry the engine is the 300 C.I.

thanks

Chris

All u have to do is go spend the eighty to 100 dollars and get a new carb for Auto Zone or Advanced Auto Part, or your nearest parts store.

I have an almost new carb that I bought for my 1980 I-6 to get it past Smog Inspection.

Since then I have converted the truck to a 351W.

I will sell the carb for $50.00 if you are interested.
