Long story about when Plymouth used a Chevrolet W-1 for a few months in 1947, and then had all the complaints (why do cars with the Chevy carb run 5 MPH faster and get much better fuel mileage than the ones with the Plymouth carburetor when the Chevy carburetor is a smaller carburetor???).

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