[/quote]It looks like Elmer is referring to the Holley-Weber
Ford 740 Weber DFT32 sold by Langdons (new carbs - progressive 2-barrel; originally used as the single carb on 1600cc engines). Mine would easily and smoothly idle at 400rpm.

Thanks, I took a look at it. I didn't see throttle bore/blade size but they look too large to me.
The 'progressive' part is that linkage rod underneath and the blades open independantly at different rates? Is that right?
Seems to me a pair of them would be much for a mild 6cyl.
