28 Chrysler Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I think he meant bolt spacing, center to center. Back in the day that was called a 2 throat carburetor not a 4 barrel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the day that was called a 2 throat carburetor not a 4 barrel. Actually, Penberthy called it a (D)ouble (V)enturi, or as you stated, two barrel. Their single barrel carbs were called (S)ingle (V)enturi. According to my records, Peerless used at least 4 different of the Penberthy DV's: DV-8, DV-12, DV-15, and DV-17 from 1919 through 1924. My records show a DV was also used in 1916, 1917, and 1918; but I do not know which DV was used in those years. Jon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagefinds Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Didn't the Olds V-8 in the teens use one of these in some form or other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickelroadster Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Olds v-8s in the teens used Johnson carbs early on and something different later but I don't think they ever used a two venturi carb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carbking Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Oldsmobile, from 1918 through 1922, used two different versions of the Penberthy type DV carb on their 8 cylinder cars. Jon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
