Is there a concensus on Carter or Rodchester carburetors whether one is better, less troublesome than the other. Are both original for '37 216.Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us new guys!


It's not the speed you travel it's the quality of the trip that matters !!!

I think the Carter and the Chevrolet copy, marked "C", of the Carter were the only original carbs for the 37 Chevrolet cars and trucks. I don't think Rochester Products were the ones making the Chevrolet copy, but I don't know when they were bought by General Motors and started producing carburetors. The Carter is simple and generally trouble free, while the first Rochesters tended toward warped bases. Maybe carbking will enlighten us.
