are some or all or any of the parts in stromberg carbs interchangable?
like 97's, 81's, 48's ????
i have a bunch of carbs and was wondering.
thanks for any info.
 
The 48-97 (marked EE1) bases interchange as do the butterflies

Choke plates interchange as do the tops, keep in mind the 81-97 have a provision for a choke lever plunger, the 48 top does not.

Choke lever/kicker interchange from 81-97

Throttle shafts interchange, though the 81-97 throttle cams have two settings- Summer/Winter

Accelerator pump levers and linkage interchanges from 48/81/97

Accelerator pumps interchange 48-97

Fulcrum screws interchange

And hand throttle lever interchanges.

Jets and power valves interchange, although each model has a specific size for stock applications!

I probably missed something.

I've rebuilt one or two that had a 48/97 base, a 97 throttle cam, and a 48 choke lever and top. Probably a lot of Frankensteins around.

Bought a 48 for my '35 2-ton, it had a 97 accelerator linkage rod, got the right one from Uncle Max, they are different length. ..B.
