I have a orginial carb but that plan on setting on the self and use a Model A carb as the driver carb. Which one is "better" for the plymouth Tillotson or Zenith? Does it matter? Which fits better? rusty
Rusty,
I currently have a Tillotson on my car. Off hand I don't know the model number and it works just fine. The only problem is that this particular carburetor orients the air cleaner in the wrong direction. Not really a problem but I thought I would mention it. I recently picked up a NOS Universal Zenith single barrel updraft carb manufactured in the late 50's or 60's. It gives you a lot of latitude for adjusting the gas mixture since it was manufactured to fit most single port updraft applications from trackers to autos. I have yet to install the carb so I can't really comment but it also should work just fine. Air filter orientation is correct on this one.
Happy hunting, Chet...
When I got my 30U it had a tillotson on it. It is pointed the right way. Didn't have any filter on it. I made my own bracket to use a regular air filter. Works very well.
