Phantom III Carburetor Information

Thank you for your interest in our product.

We furnish a new bowl cast in aluminum due to the zinc die cast float bowl losing its integrity with age. The process we use for casting is the lost wax method. This process enables us to reproduce intricate details, particularly in the main discharge tube cavity.

The project began in the 1970’s by Dr. Ned Estridge, who successfully reproduced several bowls before passing the project onto John Dennison (owner of Dennison Motors, Inc.) John reworked the waxer (the die for making the bowl in investment wax) and made jigs for drilling the numerous holes and passageways. He also made fixtures for bench testing and adjusting the bowls before final painting and assembling.

When John retired, the Phantom III carburetor bowl project passed along to Timothy Jayne Jr. (who worked for John for 15 years and bought the business from him). Today, with the advent of computer controlled machining, the bowls are reproduced with even more accuracy. The bench testing is still used in conjunction with full assembling and testing on a running car to adjust and fine tune to a very high degree. Many bowls have been sold to customers around the world to keep their Phantom IIIs on the road!
