[leroy]

First time poster long time lurker based in Western Australia

Own a 73 corvette 454 4 speed

Have read your book a few times now have a working carb plus another i am ripping parts off

Cliff have you thought of producing your guage to enable us to buy to play with different hanger hieghts or is there a chart somewhere to read

If there is is it measured from the base of the hanger or from inside edge where the hanger sits on the carrier to the holes   

Cheers

Many years ago (at least 25), I made a gauge from a piece of flat steel.  I drilled holes for the "B" hanger, "G" hanger and "P" hanger.  These days I don't look around for different ones, I just gently bend what I've got to fall in where I want it.....Cliff
