    If Mr. Fish had branded his carburetors "Archer" or "Marlin" or something similar, I am quite certain he would have sold many more.

    "Fish" is not an appropriate sounding name for a car accessory, which no doubt hurt sales.

    No, that would be a Tilloston carb on those Revmasters - similar to a Mikuni.
    Very interesting little devices - especially the seamless variable jetting. You can literally ret-jet your carb while driving.

    The Fish carb is a complete different beast though.
