carb question

[comet traveler]

Hi all,<br /> I have an '89 3.0/Alpha 1. I'm replacing the carburetor. My only question is (and I've searched pretty well for this.. i think) is this... I'm trying to go from a mercarb to a rochester. I've read things about them bolting differently? Is this true and is the only way to fix this to change the whole manifold (which wouldnt be very cost effective)? <br /><br />Thank you!!

Why not a rebuild kit?

Respectfully that should be the end all answer....
