After all the work I put into the Rochester carb and all the hope I had for it, I had to switch back to the Carter W-1 carb because I want to use the original manifold mounted horn and the inlet for the Rochester carb is directly in line with where the horn goes. The Carter has its inlet offset toward then engine, no doubt to allow space for the horn. Another hard lesson learned. Now I hope I can get it running properly with that old carb.
I decided to take a break from the engine stuff for a few days to try to get the brake system working.
