He was reading the Spin on vs. cannister thread and I sure that is what made him dizzy. Take two aspirin and call me in the morning.

Try this link. Scroll down to find the meter rod sizes. The page looks blank at first but it`s down at the bottom.http://cars.rasoenterprises.com/Carbs-CarterAFB_Jetting.htm
Funny the way they did that.
Same jet size in the end but Carter and Ede used different jet and meter sizes to get to the same size.
Not sure of the part number but the two numbers refer to the rod size.
for instance the edelb rod #1451 is a 070x047 rod.
I have a Carter strip kit but it`s across town that would have that part number but it also is listed in that link.
The carter sizes is .0705 X.0475
Edelb parts are easier to find though.,, dq
