Most tea pot carbs look the same.

55 tea pot did have the choke on the intake manifold, so no place to bolt a chock on a 55 carb.

Some of the Lincoln carbs are modified for use on E & F engines to my best knowledge.

One sure fire thing, the top body of the carb which has the chock butterflies for E & F, and like the Lincoln carbs, >>>that body part is taller than a normal/typical teapot carb. One other easy and noticeable thing, a regular tea pot has rounded edges on its choke butterflies, and the performance E& F & Lincoln has squared off edges at the bottom.

I have performance tea pot ones here, and a Lincoln teapot, for a few F's being worked on, only reason I know guys.

I tend to think the float bowls were the same as the smaller carbs. The choke housing is different as is the throttle housing.

pegleg,

You got me thinking, so I went and measured a "regular t pot" >> and then the Lincoln, E & F carbs here..

From the aluminum base body of both of the carbs, to the top of the carbs, there is exactly 1/2 inch difference in height between the reg t pot, to the hipo t pot.

I measured from the rim of where the air cleaner gasket sits.

Never measured anything in-between, maybe the float bowls are the same?

I never noticed the difference until one day when I noticed the chock butterfly differences.

Warm regards,

John

i think so. Soon as i find a good one I'll find out. Hoosier told me the diff seems to be the choke housing, and 99% of the time he's correct.

hi, only the f code is like the Lincoln, the e code are like a standard carb. also the 55 linc. carb was like the standard but it was larger than a standard carb, it has larger secondaries, about half way between a standard and a linc. for cfm, also frank, ford and IH used the bigger carbs on trucks, only with a governer, the floats might be the same as the linc. i'll check when I get a chance. they used them on trucks well into the 60's. the truck carbs are a good sourse for bigger butterflys in a standard carb.
