Looking for Venturi & Throttle Bore on 430 2-barrel

All I can find is in the 1960 Merc Shop Manual, says 13/64 Venturi which seems tiny to feed a 430 even at 300-315hp.
I wondered if it was a mistype & they meant 13/32 but that would be a little big, about like the 500cfm at 3.0" Hg Holley 2bbl that came out later.

Anybody ever measure their Carter ABD from the 60-62 430 for Venturi & Throttle Bore?
Or have specs somewhere?
