Default Re: School me on stromberg carbs

The little I know about them kinda mirrors what you know. Yes, nostalgia, but with a twist: The early multi-carb manifolds were designed for Stroms, fitted closely together, almost touching. You’ve seen 94s at swap meets having the airhorn’s front mounting screw sawed off? Now you know why. Back in the day, rodders had no choice but to use Stroms because the 94s would have to be butchered to fit, and thereafter would spew raw gas on a Pretty engine due to the chopped off mounting screw. This note comprises my entire library of wisdom about Stromberg.
