Default Carb question

What does the 1.08 or 1.23 mean when talking about the Motorcraft 2 barrel carb. Does it make any difference which one is on the car?? Jeff

I have to agree with the CFM thing but, isn't that the actual size of the throttle blades?

could very well be. I wouldn't know. I was only interested in the cfm rating for choosing the proper one for the right engine
