Pretty much, but I dont think your chances of getting a 2bbl carb from an 86 truck with a 302 will be good as ford went to EFI for 86. The 300, 351 and bigger still had carbs though. But you dont want a 1bbl on there now do you.

You should be able to remove the part of the carb linkage that the cruise cable hooks to and install it on the new carb. Can't you rebuild the current carb?
