Zenith made a lot of different carburetors. Harold Hicks talked Henry Ford into using the Zenith designed for the model A in order to get the 40 HP during the engine development but is was only used on the early 4-cylinder models. All of the Ford ones had the GAV on the side but the B carbs has a more rectangular bowl shape and the larger venturi bore.
