<VV> Late carbs--early engine?

[Frank DuVal]

You can swap the maual choke levers/parts from the 61 carbs to the late 
model carbs. Then you can still have manual choke operation with the 
late carbs. The 60 carb is more different, as it doesn't have choke 
butterlies in the air horn, so these would be a bad choice.
