Yep, I did have a Carb Float part company inside the carby on my 32/36 DGV... I wondered why it was idling like a pig and hard to start. One of the two floats...

I am looking for a twin carb setup for a K series I have a 3k and I need a bit more power. A complete set would be much preferred as parts in the US are dear. ...

i have owned 3 sets over the years they dont really make you go faster, they just make the car use more fuel and make more noise per below 'proper' carbs or...
