Sediment bowl interchangeable?
Can the cast iron sediment be replaced with the later style glass? Can it be simply swapped ?

Yes, same attachment. Direct interchange.

Save what you can of the cast iron version - DON'T THROW AWAY.
The cast iron ones were reproduced for a very short time back in the 1980s. Since then - NOTHING - except you can buy the parts. One assumes a lawsuit or something is keeping these off the market. Consequently many are doing what they can to keep the cast iron ones going, including reaming them out - connecting the inlet and outlet - and putting them on the firewall "for appearance" - and relying on an in- tank filter - or the filter add-on to the Zenith Carb. Even the nut holding the cast iron one to the firewall is of interest. Its bigger/heavier than the usual nut - many use the nut instead of counting on the pal-nut that many of the aluminum filters come with as standard. Joe K
