My PU came with an original Sidebowl Zenith, that had theoretically been rebuilt. But, of course, if it was, it wasn't done well. After many attempts at "fixing" it myself, I sought outside help.

The decision to go with a Weber came down to the economics. It was pretty much the same price to have the Zenith Sidebowl repaired or replaced as it was to go with a brand new Weber, including the manifold, air cleaner, and linkage. That, with the advertised increase in power and the expectation of "not leaking", made it a no brainer for me.

All of the above have proved to be true IMHO. This swap is not for one that wants to keep everything as Henry designed it, but it works for me.

(Does that do it, Joe?)
