Great point. Ya I blocked the rises also in Florida, couple thin tin shims with ears to remove. No need to heat the carb in hot climate. Still have them in Mn and it takes a few miles to warm up. Little choke for a bit, then good no exhaust heat on the carb/intake. Heat risers are not as crucial.

Sometimes we forget they made these cars to run in all climates. Most of us never run our cars when it's 10 below. But they did, and at 100 degrees too. Made for both.
