Malcolm,
Marcus Engineering took over the manufacture of these carburettors in later years. It was they that resolved the inherent problem with the 48NNIP carb fitted to the CVR(W) Fox, with a redesigned base plate and accelerator pump linkage. Nearly too late as the Fox was near the point of being withdrawn.
