I'd bet these are converted for alcohol. They use to sell retro kits and I'd also Vic and the crew converted some for customers as well.

Check the main jet size. If around .075 they are for alcohol.

A quick look from the top down, into the minor venturiis, will reveal emulsion tubes that you could drive a truck through if they've been converted for alcohol. If that's the case, they can't be undrilled.

Any one seen one with these markings before? The carb looks relatively standard in jets, PV and emulsion tubes?
