FORUM RULES: Users agree to these Rules when using Forum.

The site administrator reserves the right to change the terms and conditions of the user agreement without prior notice to the user. It is the responsibility of the user to regularly review the terms of this agreement.

The user agrees to the following terms:

All information that you provide to us for your membership is correct.
You will not use your membership to spam, harrass, or exploit other members in any way.
Vulgar, Abusive, Racist and Sexist Language will not be tolerated.
Commercial-type sales postings will not be allowed.
No mass posting or flooding of the boards is allowed.
No Advertising of parts or cars; no Ebay or business/commercial ads (please use the "Classified" for ads Wanted or For Sale).
VIEWING MULTIPLE TOPICS ON SCREEN: You can choose to see more than 10 Topics at a time ... Log In and choose "Preferences" from the top bar on the Forum page. Scroll down and Change the "Default Topics Returned" parameter to 25 or 50, and save the changes. Since this setting is stored in your browser 'cookies' (if enabled), it seems to use that stored value even if you are not logged in. So, if you use a PC that you haven't logged into the forum from, the setting still seem to remain at the default.
EXTERNAL PHOTO LINKS ON FORUM: You can still use external photo links in your posts on the new forum. They follow the rules of any link in that they have to have the URL link qualified down to the full image file name (example: .jpg). The links will open in a new browser window, the same as an uploaded image attached to a post. Since an image attachment to any post does not display inline with the post, the results are the same. You can use multiple external links within a post. This link is from photos on a site from Don Clink's 'Deuce@75' albums:

http://donclink.com/deuce_75_1/images/dscn2950.jpg

Using links from photo sites such as Photobucket can help in "size" issue with uploaded attachment files. For best viewing in web browsers, photos should be around the 800x600 pixel range, and probably not more than 1024x768. Most cameras today store HUGE jpg image files, as the default settings are in the 7, 8, 10, and 12Mb image sizes. The image files that are then attached are very large, and the browser can't display the full image size without using the scroll bars. Use the re-sizing functions of your photo editing software to reduce the image to 800x600, which reduces the file sixe and the image load time in the browser. Don uses Google's free Picassa3 software, which is an excellent photo management product. All of the photo albums of the Deuce, Grand National, and Auburn that are links on the NORG site were built using Picassa's web creation functions. And it's free? (THANKS to Don Clink for the info!)

Got the carb today! I put it on the car. The car started immediately and ran perfectly pulling 19" vacuum. No adjustments needed. Truly. a "plug and play." Couldn't be happier.

Thanks guys for the recommendations.

Agree with all the comments here. The DC 'new' 94 is a plug-and-play carb that requires little, if any, adjustment.

For the purist looking for a perfect score on the Concourse or pursuing a Rouge class drive train/running gear award these in all likelihood will not earn full points as they are not identical in every respect to the original and should be easily discernible by a judge. If you are looking for that have ken ct rebuild yours for you.

If you simply want to enjoy the drive they are well worth the investment.

I put one on a friend's 40 pickup to replace a worn out one that could not be rebuilt. It worked good right out of the box. I would definitely recommend the carb.

I bought 2 carbs from Dennis. One for my 35 and one for my 37. Put them on right out of the box and adjusted nothing. They have been working perfectly for the last 3 years. Highly recommend.

I had an identical experience as deluxe 40. Bought at C&G installed and been driving ever since. Has 3602 miles on it. I recommend it.

Yes. I bought one from C&G and installed it on my '40 Ford. It worked right out of the box and smoothed acceleration considerably. After driving it a bit I reset the idle, but pretty much put it right back where it was.

I saw in Dennis Carpenter's new catalog he is offering a new "94" carb for $275. Anyone have any experience with the carb?
