<x-charset iso-8859-1>Steven,
Thanks for the info.  That'll be easier than I thought.  The next thing to
tackle are the Solexes (?), and specifically the accelerator pump
mechanisms.  I have 6-8 carbs, from which I put together the two best
mechanisms, but they're well worn out.  I need new pump housings and
actuator rods.  Not a big problem short-term, since an idle is the only goal
to see if the engine is toast or not.  I will need to address this before
the car hits the road.

Fun, fun, fun.
