Description

Original caption reads:
"Fred Walters, Engine Builder setting up the 4 twin Weber carbs! This 'V' shape casting tidys up the open gap which is usually seen on V8s (or pan shaped dust bin lid). Once these 4 carbs are fitted, the whole lot can be bolted down in the 'V' on the engine. The top is screwed down making a very clean chamber for tuning. (No doubt with fuel injection in mind for more balanced tuning)"
