When your car bursts into flames, ask the carb guy if updraft carbs are supposed to do that to.

It should only drool fuel if it's flooded.

I used a BB1 carb on my '30 CJ Chrysler for a while and it ran great, but went back to the DR8 brass bowl original one. Both were rebuilt by Jeff Dreibus "The Old Carb Doctor" as he calls himself in the WPC newsletter advertisment for services offered. I didn't have any gas leaks with the BB1. I recommend using Jeff, but be prepared to wait....
