Whoa, that is certainly something I have never seen before. The C-28 Royal/Windsor 8 passenger LWB Sedan Limousine was a rare car (I think less than 300 units). This tag however, shows that this car was built on the New Yorker/Saratoga platform as designated by the C30. As far as my research goes, the 8 passenger limo was never built on a C30 chassis. I will dig deeper into this.

Here is the conversion that I came up with. It does require machining the inside down for the new girdle spring and ethanol compatable seal. Because ethanol is basically alcohol, it drys out the leather seal, which the original and aftermarket replacements still use.

Scottish 41 Windsor Here are the measurements you requested

I have used various kits for my carbs. If you have a fluid drive transmission, there are two different accelerator pump plungers. None of the kits have the second plunger. If you car has the fluid drive, you can get the accelerator pump from oldmoparts.com. I have made several conversions to use the same plunger for both accelerator pumps. I also converted them to use with the garbage gas at the pump.

What kind of car do you have?

Scottish 41 Windsor The taller block is the one for the front. If you are unable to find the correct one, you could make one out of some solid aluminum stock. Or if you just need it functional, stack washers

You are correct, the forward block has a taller base. Looks like someone used a rear block instead of the forward one. I will locate my set and snap some pictures. As is, my car is undergoing a frame off rotisserie restoration and all my parts are in my garage.

Scottish 41 Windsor, The pieces you are talking about it the hinge strip and mounting blocks. The blocks and hoods (or bonnets) have grooves that correspond to this strip. The strip is closed on the back side and open at the front. The rear short block slides on first towards the back, then both hoods followed by the front taller block. The blocks bolt to the firewall and the cowl and support the "floating hoods" allowing them to open independently from either side. Let me know if you need some reference photos.

DeS-11, I am the original author of that thread and the one who did all the research on what those numbers mean. Here is the most current picture. The 28 should read "engine series", not the "platform series" Everything I have is for Chrysler, but if you post a picture of your data tag, I might be able to help.

Thank you Mezz, It's a never-ending task of research.

Sadly my build card was lost years ago, although I never thought to check the frame rails. I may have to break out the bore scope. Do you have a your data tag on the firewall? I have a '41 Chrysler and it has taken me years of research to decode my tag. Your tag has the basic information, the card has what equipment or options the car was built or ordered with. The holes are indicate what options/equipment your car has. The card also shows your interior trim code as 124. This would be the type of material and color your interior was. I have included a link to an old post that may help you. http://p15-d24.com/topic/34169-build-card-for-my-old-dodge/ I also included a picture of the decoded build card and my decoded data tag so far. Hope this helps you on your quest. -J.
