<VV> 4 barrel carter vs. the original 4 carbs on a 140

[Bryan Blackwell]

I have collected a number of notes on the subject, you can find them on this page on my site:

The advantage over the Rochester setup is better turn cut out resistance, and simpler linkage.  The big downside is it's hard to keep the fuel suspended in those long runners.
