Berts can modify carbs for air balancing for use with air filters during their carb rebuild process if you ask.

Snyder's and maybe others (I have not checked) sell new Zenith ! carbs that are air balanced. The one on my car works great. In fact the engine runs a little on the lean side with a K&N filter.

Renner also modifies carb bodies so the are air balanced.

I always wonder if my Model A does not need an air filter why does it get dirty? And I run engine pans?

Does Renners still rebuild carbs? Thought I saw where they no longer rebuild carbs due to people blaming issues on the carb when people also had issues with dirty/rusty gas tanks, manifold leaks, etc.
