Staghound Question

[Grant Bowker]

For what it's worth, there isn't a listing for a Chevrolet part number 608220 in the manual for the C60X with 270 engine (either Zenith or Carter carburetor version).

What about the two sub components listed under this part number, Grant, at the bottom of the package?

Staghound engines use the Carter W-1 carburetor so I guess the needle&seat assembly will fit any W-1 carburetor.

Thanks guys, not sure that's a definitive answer though, so best make sure they go to the right home.
Any Stag owner want them?

From a carb rebuild sit eon the net:

Chevrolet used various versions of the Carter W-1 as original equipment from 1932 through 1949. In addition to the original equipment (O.E.) carbs, other units were offered as replacements; as Carter continued to improve the performance and reliability of the W-1. However, do not believe that all W-1 Carters were used on Chevrolet; as 128 different W-1 carburetors were built.

I think before a chev owner orders these, he should check the chev parts manual and see if the number matches. My CMP chev manual shows a needle seat part number of 25-338 or ac111352.

Attached are two photo's from the Staghound's parts list SNL-G122.
The Carter part number for the set is Car 25-121S, Ordnance part number A281875.
See L and M in the illustration.

I could use them as spares.
