Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by rat bastad, Jun 6, 2005.

  1. Hey anyone on the HAMB use these carbs? How did they find em?

    What are they supposed to flow? Id like to run them on my blown Flathead.....theyre a period carb used on early 50's engines. I know kits are still available for em.

    They look like this...http://www.classicpreservation.com/carbpicturepage.html

    I have one on my 56 Buick runs great. I'd like to know the CFM also. Arn't they WCFB's though? I thought a WGD was the two barrel my Buick came with?

  3. WGD's are 2 barrels, WCFB's are four barrel carbs.

    I want to run 2 x 2BBL carbs on my blown flatty, hence the cfm question. Two 97's or 94 won't offer enough air/fuel flow for what im after. Impretty sure they came on 50's Buicks and Olds engines.

    Im guessing the WGD's flow b/w 250 and 280 cfm.
