Although it is the set up on my RP, th combination of an SU and vacuum wiper is a curious contradiction. (in fairness at the revs then considered normal the pressure drop thru zeniths is also very small. (The restrictive effect of carbs is meaured by the pressure drop in inches of mercury, which is exactly what the wiper does but in strokes per minute/hour!) Fortunately on my car eons ago a manual operating lever had been added, similar later cars.
When driving moderns in the rain always impressed even cf cars of the 60s.
Even owners of performance cars of the time (Ford 10!) might not be impressed by air tanks. Dunno if they had a manual lever but overtaking tricky without.
