(Opinion) the 1941~1948 Carter W-1's used by Chevrolet (483s and 574s) are in the top 5 of all single barrel carbs ever produced anywhere in the world.

Good power, good driveability, good economy, good reliability. What more could you ask for???

If it isn't working properly......fix it!

The most expensive carburetor is the wrong one you attempt to modify.
