The Ford Barn

Yep, Tom has a double venturi with a throttle plate marked with a "(W)", that is a W inside a circle, as close as I could get.
My thinking now is that before the issue of the venturi arose, Ford only marked parts with the Z, the source of the carb.
Size,dimension, etc was not appropriate. After the change to single venturi, the "size", 18 1/2 was used to not the change.Maybe, just maybe Tom solved the problem.
Now, my search changes to find the throttle plate with the "circle Z", (Z)
My plea goes out again. Any and all inputs surely welcomed.

I guess you meant to say Z in a circle in your first sentence.
