Hey stock49,
Before I close all these weblinks I wanted to post the set and thank you again for a most interesting series on building the 216 stovebolt.
Thread & posts by stock49 and others, the composite of these makes an excellent stovebolt how-to book

https://www.inliners.org/ubbthreads/ubbth...=true#Post80657In the last thread, I wondered how many WCD sizes there were and what CFM they might be.
Here is what I have on sizes, along with my guess at CFM though Im not sure these were ever CFM rated (usually 1-2bbls are rated at 3 Hg, 4bbls are rated at 1.5 Hg I number crunch everything at 1.5 Hg for consistency)
Venturi
.Throttle
CFM@3Hg
.CFM@1.5Hg

Not sure if you can confirm or add to any of this, Im just trying to build a carb/cfm database over the years.
Thanks again for your 216 posts, looking forward to the next one in the series!
