Default Carburetor for 0-360 A1A

My ECI 0-360 A1A kit has now been assembled and hung and I am looking for the appropriate mags and carburetor, can someone point me to the correct place to find the appropriate part number or designator for the carb for the RV-7 (compatible with the FWF kit). I have the chief and aircraft spruce catalogs but am somewhat confused by all the numbers and designations.

I also have the vacuum pump and the constant speed gear that came with the engine kit for sale if anyone is interested.

Thanks

Contact Jesse at A.E.R.O. and he'll get you the parts you need at a good price....(www.aeroinstock.com)

MA-4-5 is the carb you need (I'd ask for 10-4164-1 .. but maybe there's a "higher" version number now...)

Default richer carb

I agree with the 4164.....it is the richer one.
The other one is the 3878.
Pretty sure, even with the FP prop....
assuming this because of the C/S gear you have to sell....
you will benefit from the richer carb.
The 3878 can be modified to be a 4164 if you find a good deal on a used one.
Good Luck
