I know that a folklift carburetor which can replace the original A carb is made 9looks like a tilly). Can someone please supply me with information regarding these. A web site, source etc. would be appreciated. Thanks
 
Not sure what information you're looking for but I think this is the carb you are referring to?

[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]Automotive Test Systems[/FONT]

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]Ford Model A Carburetor, new Zenith 13922 Carburetor. Replacement carburetor for Ford Model A (1928-1931) 185 to 200 cubic in. engines. Made in USA. 1 year warranty.

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]It is also "balanced" for air filter use. But yow will have to adapt the fuel line connections.[/FONT]
 
Its also my thoughts that the forklift carburetor most folks talk about is a 13922 Zenith.

There was a new repro Tillotson out for awhile, but, apparently there were some issues with them.
 
I just picked up a used one just like this in good shape at an auction for $25.00. I think it is the same as the one in the link above for the Model A conversion.
With the link provided above I can now see what is needed to convert it for the Model A. Thank you!

I'm not sure how set you are on having a forklift carb, but my first choice would be the correct, rebuilt and tested Carb sold by Bert's. 800-321-1931

I don't disagree with you Tom, but I don't feel bad about saving a bunch of bucks for an improved Zenith. My original Zenith has been cracked and welded and the mixture screw keeps moving on it's own so I think it is time to upgrade. I am comfortable with an improved model $25 Zenith.
