I've talked to a couple of carb restores who work with vintage stuff who plate the cast iron bases with zinc and then black chromate. They feel that with todays gasoline the zinc + blackener gives a stronger finish. I haven't been doing carbs long enough too be able to rate the longevity of my work. I have a few carbs with crack in the casting sitting in a bucket of ethenal to test their theories.
