As a GENERAL RULE!:
We suggest that if one migrates an original equipment carburetor from one application to another application THAT IS BASICALLY STOCK; then the donor engine should be (for best results) within + or - (plus or minus) 3 percent of the donee engine.
Keeping with the above: 3 percent of 283 is approximately 9. So the donor engine should be from 274 to 292 CID (for best results, if your 283 is basically stock).

Good carburetion is fuelish hot airThe most expensive carburetor is the wrong one you attempt to modify. If you truly believe "one size fits all," try walking a mile in your spouse's shoes!The Carburetor Shop | | |
