An earlier relative of the G?

Yes, the G is later and not as complex.

The Holley H-1 bears a resemblance to this carburetor made by the American Watch Tool Company of Waltham, Massachusetts. The big difference is that the body is made of aluminum. It has the same miserable style of float valve. I have done battle with it countless times, seldom with long lived success. Other than that disappointment, the engine starts easily and runs well.

The Metz head sure runs well on a T with a couple bolt hole mods and a graft on the water neck to a T.

For 1912, correct? Looks just like one I had for my former '12, but some also have a "ring" around them for the stove pipe as I recall.

There are three versions if you count all the minor differences.

....not to mention the different throttle plate levers for RHD cars, as this one is.
The one on my 1912 Haigh's Chocolate van works flawlessly, except for an occasional leak when I turn the car off. Stan rebuilt a second one for me, but it's too pretty to fit!
Allan from down under.
