Default Carbs

I dont know Rich, but I do know there is a difference in where the float chamber vents. it should be at the rear, because the fan presurises the chamber, with the front vented carbs. there is a website that explains the differences between the the Ford/ Stromberg/ others/ years/ etc etc etc.
Your not building a race engine here so it wont make any difference if you use a 94 or 97, but it should perform better than with the original carb, (I was told this by an old guy who used carriers in farming, post war)which had a governor integral to it (good or bad?) Im not sure if the old guy was talking about the British Solex, or the Canadian Zenith.
