Default Fitting into a CMP....

Rest assured Chris the 261 will fit... bolts right in with no modificaton to the CMP BUT as Phil pointed out the water pump from a 216 with a suitabe adapter plate is mandatory.... and easily found on EBay.

Fitting into a cab 11 CMP requires a bit more finess... you have to use a Cab 13 draft tube and you will need to run a small distributor from a 216 as the later 55 to 61 rubs on the engine cover.... no such issues with the cab 13.

I chose to use the original 261 flywheel with the HD 11 in. clutch plate....all rebuilt by Ottawa Brake and Clutch... of course I am running on 12 volts.

I found an after market hot rod twin oil filter mount that accepts the modern PH 8... this gives me an additional 1.6 liter of oil......oil pressure 40 pounds at idle .
Vacuum steady at 22 inches. The twin oil filters are mounted inside the frame on the pass. side and not visible. Had the original GM 1/2 in steel line refitted with modern rubber oil lines for the plumbing.

Runs very nice. Ran a Rochester B for a while and dids not like the gas leaks an switch to a YF carter manual choke.

Carbs were rebult by the Oak Brothers in Toronto they still use the old fashion flow bench to test and set up there rebuilt carbs.

Cheers

Lucky guess indeed, based on the inside knowledge gleaned from Chris' signature
