That was 10 years ago, but if memory serves, the acc pump was updated, and a couple linkages.... that was it for updates besides small hardware changes.
AFB actually stands for aluminium four barrel... its not a brand or anything.

I get that. That was me calling it a knockoff...

Apples to Oranges... same carb... I personally don't care for them. Again... personal preference, and has nothing to do with my tuning prowess...

I've used them... not my bag.
