Re: ZIS 110

Looking at all the pics and sort of guessing on Gerd's measurements, I'm of the educated opinion that the WDO will fit on a Zis. If this is so, then a multitude of carbs will fit on one. Doing some more intensive investigation, a WDG has the same bolt pattern, as well as later Carter two barrel carbs, and Stromberg WW's. The main thing to watch for is the butterfly openings, which on the WDO is 1 & 5/16", and on the WDG and Stromberg WW's it's 1 & 7/16". I used the carbs I have in my "collection" for measurements, the WDO is off from a '49 Hudson 262, the WDG is from my '53 Clipper, and the Stromberg WW is from a '56 Dodge Coronet V8. I know the Stromberg will fit on a later MOPAR 318, as I used it on my '76 Dodge 3/4 Ton pickup with no problems, and it ran better with it than the original Carter carb.
