Tilllotson Model C 11A carb 0419

Hi all,
In my quest to find more stuff I don’t need, I bought a carb at the Model T Auction today. It is a Tillotson Model C 11A. Rather nice looking in brass with aluminium intake. Google has not been helpful. I found a reference to Willys Overland, but that was a Model C 13A. I did find one reference to a Model T, but would have expected many more if it had been used on Model Ts. 0419 is cast into the body. Anyone know if this was used on Ts and if it was any good?
I will confess that I saw it and had a vague memory they were good, but now remember that i was confusing it with a Stromberg (I have unjustified negative feelings towards Strombergs in general following a trip into a hedge with my plane).
