Manufacturing a 1930 Doble Steam Car Carburetor !

Chris Wedgwood is creating exact CAD model of carburetor in my 1930 Doble.  He will then machine the patterns and core boxes ( molds) from the 3d model, cast the parts out of bronze and iron, and then machine them to exact specs!   Not an easy project!  See photos of carb design!

So @duseyguy, what does the carburetor do on a steam car?  regulate fuel in to the burner I assume?

These carburetors are available at Walmart off the shelf. Just look in the automotive section next to the unicorn horns.
