The 43mm comes from the vertically mounted carb/float setting. When you cant the carbs on a big block, you have to raise the fuel level 2mm to keep the 43mm in the emulsion tube well. With a canted carb, if you don't raise the level, the fuel level will be low and will affect the transition process.

The idea is to keep the fuel level at the design height inside the emulsion tube well where the level interacts with the holes in the e-tube and the venturi exit port.
