Thermo-Quad metering rod measures

TQ with HIC. There is a hole of about 7/32" under the HIC, goes through to the carb base. When I am going to use a TQ on an engine with a big cam, I use that hole for bypass air. I make a plate that screws into the adjacent boss that I can swivel over the hole to vary the amount of air.

I have one that has that. Ran it for a short time to make sure it was fully working. Just a few days worth of driving. It’s on a shelf now. The numbers according to the Vannth guide state it’s an International.
