that WCFB appears to have the "teapot base" used on ford products. the lincoln 368 engine in 56/7 uses a WCFB with air divorced choke and external pod vacuum secondaries--- i have them on 3 of my 57 linclons. all the small internals will interchange with the WCFBs i have on my furys, but very little otherwise. the base will be the giveaway. the plym/mopar wc's use the smaller carter pattern of the std afb base. my 56 chrysler had a similar external pod for the secondaries as well. numbers will be the key. some ford WCFBs and 55-56 packard engines used the teapot base with an external power valve situated on the front of the carb. i used a packard spec wcfb on my 57 turnpike cruiser- which uses the same 368 linc engine i mentioned earlier. some other cars used teh wcfb... i think the dual quad pontiacs had them, corvettes used a single wcfb -or- gm 4-jet depending on the year. i think the reign of the WCFB ended in 59 on a studebaker... 58 for chrysler corp, and 57 for fomoco and packard with the demise of the packard 352 V8 -----Original Message----- From: Bill Amberger <Magnumguy@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: L-FORWARDLOOK@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thu, 11 Dec 2008 8:32 pm Subject: Re: [FWDLK] Can anyone ID this carb? Did Mopar models have those "side" mounted chokes?
New to me if so.
