dont know the difference in carbs but a 2f is 4.2ltr vrse the 3f of 3.95ltr
i have been told the intake manufold is the same configuration so the carb could be as well.
good luck for finding a 3f as they only went into the early 60 and 70 series vehicles.
off hand i think the 80series went 3fe

I bought one for my old 60 series from ebay. Cost about $250 inc postage.
For example: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Carburetor- ... 4b&vxp=mtr

Early Au/Nz spec 80series were released with 3f carb
