model A zenith carbs

In the 1970's, Zenith Fuel Systems designed and sold an aftermarket carb specifically for the Ford Model A. The calibrations were the same as original, except for using the modern externally adjustable main metering jet instead of the original with the dash adjustment.

 

We were (and still are) WD for Zenith, and we sold quite a few of these. There was a LOT of buying resistance, due to the lack of the dash adjustment; but once someone actually bought one, most admitted the dash adjustment was unnecessary.

 

While I cannot be completely certain, without knowing the tag number, the carbs pictured by the OP appear to be these replacements. The tag number of the replacement was 13922.
