I think 65, but the use of a road draft tube was also based on DSO.

I promise to be politically correct in all my posts to keep the BBBB from vociferating.

One data point on road draft tubes.....my 09K SJ hipo Fastback came with a C50F-L carb and non-drilled out carb spacer.  Both were for a road draft car, and owner claimed they were both original to the car.  It didn't come with the fabled hipo road draft tube though.   :'(  Also, car is DSO 61 (Dallas) and engine build stamp is Oct 18, 1964. 

Hope that helps.
