Hey David,

Appreciate you weighing in.... Yes, I do have the heat shield between the carb and the manifold and I believe there is a thick 'spacer' twixt the carb and the shield. (I will check)

Re the heat riser valve, mine is nice and free after considerable work soaking it in Freeall and working it from the frozen state it was in when I got the car. I also procured a new spring from Brian DeBoeck in Calgary and have installed that.

To recap on the heat riser valve: weight down is the 'open' position; the spring holds it in the 'up' or 'closed' position cold and opens it as the engine warms.... sound correct????
