Its an 'Auto-Tune Engine Performance parts' By BWD Automotive Corporation.
The part # is 15157. It also came with an intruction sheet for Rochester Models "B", "BC", and "BV".
Im pretty sure my 1951 with a 216 has the Rochester model B. It does not really need a rebuild, but it does not run a smoothly as the 59 does (which my dad put a reman carb on). And I just want to get some more experience working on carbs, this will be my first rebuild!
Thanks,
Austin
