Ken, I can't entirely agree with your statement that today's fuels obviate the need for a functioning manifold heat riser. On these older carbureted engines, if you drive in the colder seasons, engine performance is greatly improved with a functioning riser as the engine goes from cold start-up to normal operating temperatures. I say this based on experiences with both the '34 and '56 Packards.
