Hi,

I am currently working on the Zenith Stromberg 175 CD-2SE carburetors for a Jaguar E-Type Series 3 V12.

Upon inspection, I noticed that my oil dampers have two completely different rod lengths (
Could you please clarify what the correct total length (or rod length) should be for the dampers on a Series 3 V12?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Mine are all 76mm give or take the odd decimal point.

According to AI, your rod should be 1 7/8" or 47.6mm. The one on the left looks like a SU damper.
