m35 reo carb question

[deuceman51]

What type of carb is used on the early M35 Reo gassers? I have some carb rebuild kits that are marked REO on them, but some of the gaskets seem to match perfectly up to my M211 Holley carb. I'm wondering if they used the same or similar carbs or if someone just messed up labeling. Thanks.

Holley 885-FF - the Reo carb and the Hyrdamatic carb differ only in some internal details.

885-FFG ...as DD indicates... They are Holley... However they are not interchangeable due to jet size and other internals... For the Reo you need 7368643...Ord #... Most of the gaskets are interchangeable... I sold my last brandy new one a coupla years ago at a local MV flea market...still in the Nice Holley Box....now I miss it...boo hoo....

OH yeah, The kit for the Reo should be 2910-793-9050 and the gasket kit 7539069... fyi
