Gentleman, Does anyone know of the guy in New York that rebuilds the carb on a 33 model 40? I believe it is a Rochester
Thank You
 
Contact Charlie NY, 716-662-9159 Western part of NY, he rebuilt my carb plus lots of others on this forum.
 
Or Uncle Max, Stromberg wiz. He is allowed to post on here. Probably will chime in. Uncle Max, to the courtesy phone!
 
In 34 Ford used both the 40 and 48. The two Carbs were identical in outward appearance, with the difference being the inside of the top and center sections. At sometime near 35 Ford had Stromberg mark the die casting "48" to distinguish Ford Carbs from Carbs used by other car Mfg. due to Fords rebuilding program.

I thought 40 was the model of the car, and 48 was the first Stromberg 3 bolt two barrel in '34.
Pretty sure '33 and '34 Ford cars were model 40's.

The "40" designation came from the Ford part number prefix for 1934 automobiles. The 40's are very similar to 48's with the exception of the upper idle channel circuits. Outwardly, it's near impossible to tell the difference.

This partial quote is from none other than Uncle Max. It was from a few years ago.
