Y'all  :oops:
Are there not three types of ignition locks?

230: Niemann (sp?) key cut on one side
250: Dont know - same as 230 I think.
280 Early: Ymos ket cut on both sided and with rubber holder, + other keys for doors, etc.
280 Late: Similar to Early key. One key does all but blank key somewhat thinner?

Will a late barrell+key fit an early 280??
Need to know as I have a full late single key lock set I want to fit to an early 280.
