Thanks. If I don’t see your reply, I’ll PM you after the holidays.
This time of year can be busy.

That Weber was bigger than those normally run on our A's, and it ran very well. It had an electric choke, which was nice. Being bigger than a 97, it probably put out more power but I never ran a single 97 on that engine so can't give you a comparison chart. I've since built a manifold for a side draft Weber, a 45DCOE, and after a jet change it ran even better. This was on my 4-port Riley.

If you e-mail me at jimb4e4@gmail I'll send you a dyno report that I did, it has some interesting figures where we ran 1, 2 and 3 carbs.
