Barry Grant Carb Quality?
The demons by BG were good if you got a good one. There are some horror stories of metal left inside from machining and killing engines and quality over the years getting worse. Regardless, every carb you put on an engine should get disassembled, cleaned, and pinned at the very minimum so you know what you have and know that it won’t destroy your engine. The Brawler is probably just fine for you, but the amount of work to get it on the car will be about the same (cleaning and pinning).
