Which Carburator on a 56 Clipper Deluxe?

Hello guys,


Yesterday we were busy to make some fine tunings at the Clipper.
So we wanted to fine tune also the carburator, but when we checked out the 55-56 Service manual we found only the 4-barrel and a 2-barrel carburator. The '2' should be the one on a Clipper Deluxe but the version mentionned in the manual isn't the one on my car.
On my car there is a Carter Carburator ( I think it's a WCB (?) version, I have to re-check it ).
Should this be the genuine one on a 56 Clipper Deluxe or should it have been replaced once?

Does anyone has a technical info for this Carter carburator needed on a 56 Deluxe?


Thanks!
