Put my vote in with engguy, a Ceco (Chandler Evans) carburetor. If that is right, the engine would be a Pratt & Whitney R-1830-65A manufactured by Buick or Chevrolet installed on a Consolidated B-24 Liberator. Ceco was a backup to the PD-12 that was installed on R-1830-43/-43A engines. I wonder how many Ceco carburetors exist today. :?:

My wife said I couldn't answer this one as I have too many carbs in my diet already! She doesn't think I need any more. :lol:
