Steve,

I like the 2300s.  They're more or less "half of a 4bbl" with a multitude
of tuning options and "hop up" items available.

Not so for the 2210.  What you have is what you get.  For the 2300, you
can get the offroad needle n' seat, transfer slot widgets (don't recall
the name), assortment of jets and powervalves, deeper bowls, deeper jets
if you wanted 'em.. just a lot more aftermarket and tuning stuff out
there.

OTOH, if you have a 2210 and it works and you're happy.. no reason to switch.

Also, you'll need a new air cleaner housing.  The 2300 uses the larger
"4bbl" size opening, while the 2210 uses a smaller air horn.

I don't have anything using a 2210 any more, though I'll probably put one
on my mom's '74 SII, since I'm out of good useable 2300s at the moment. :)
