Don Dunbar, Dave Mccandless and I took a close look at this Revmaster carb
for
use with rotary, One would need two to get over 200 HP.
This looks like a good low cost and simple solution for the fuel system.
It appears to be a Mikuni flat slide carb of some kind with the float
bowl removed. However I cannot find the exact Mikuni model or on what
vehicle
it was used. I suspect the float bowl is removed to allow the mixture
to be adjusted using a low pressure gravity fuel feed. Rather brilliant
idea on Joe Horvath's parts. Joe is charging $330 each so I'll bet the
original version with float bowl is a lot cheaper.
Any body recognize this carb body?

Paul,
From my research all slide carbs that don't have a float bowl need a +ve
low pressure pump. This looks like a no frills carb as Mikuni are a little
better finished, from what I've seen anyway.
Does it have markings or paperwork that came with it?
George (down under)
No markings.
