My advice, pay a little more and get the Zenith 1 carb. Car will run as it should, easy to service, looks as it should.

I did do a search for previous posts, I can see there were various opinions on them, I don`t need a carb desperately but the price was good, trouble is over here bits are expensive and after what I`ve spent on imports I`m on first name terms with the customs people, but you are right WHN that must be the route to take.
