Whats the pros and cons?

Why did the military switch over to Zenith in the mid 1980s?

Is there any power difference?

Better mantinance between the two?

There's not meny topics on the subject. Didn't know they made a Zenith Carburetor till few weeks ago.

I would bet there are way more Zenith carbs out there than the Holley 885. Zenith made carbs for everything from forklifts, boats, industrial engine, etc. Similar the the continental industrial engine....its not a "household" name, but there are hundreds of thousands of them in just about everything, and often re-branded. Performance wise, the carb won't make too much, if any difference on a industrial engine. I'd go with the toilet bowl. (zenith)
