They are engraved on the diaphram cover. But RIVA did not manufacture them. The actually do not or did not ever actually make anything. R&D made alot of there "Riva" branded parts.

The fogger nozzle is just about identical as the SBN Buckshots. Plus they have built in fuel pumps per Riva's spec's. Buckshots billet carbs were build as slave carbs with a different venturi design.

They are a copy of a buck shot as i am lead to believe.
And buckshots are known for there massive power and metering as well

More like the other way around.

I think this carb design is from the early 90's.

The riva carb is a copy of the buckshot. after that andrew started doing the brm carb wich was full billet
These were heaps better than the magnums except he changed them so they didnt use mikuni needle and seat this made it almost impossible to source them when they wore out.
If he made them with the mikuni n/s they would still be around today.
