Jay,

In 1964, Rambler made 3 six cylinder engines. All were 195.6
cubic inch displacement. Two overheads, one in cast iron the other was alloy. The third was a flathead.

In 1965, Rambler came out with the 199. This year they also
offered the 195.6 OHV in iron and the flathead. The 195.6 OHV
which I currently have, had the one year only full flow oil filter and a waterpump bypass.. The bypass helped keep the engine temps uniform before the thermostat opened. The 195.6
is one tough little engine. Stock, it pulls like a little diesel. The 199 was enlarged to the 232 after a year or so.

The Weber I am using is a progressive 2 barrel. It is sold as
a replacement/performance carb for the Carter 2 barrel that comes on the 258.. I think it is a 34/36 mm carb. I rejeted it per the postings of Tom Jennings and his 195.6 hop up work on his Rambler. It's a great little carb. Good gas mileage and much smoother operation than the Carter. A wee bit more mid-range
power that the Carter. And, the price is right...I think is was less than $300.
