Being new to the Big Bolts please explain to me more about that statement. I just want my truck to run, not at all worried about it "being original" In my original post I said the carb that is on it I don't think can be rebuilt. The top plate of the carb looks warped. A buddy looked at it today and said "what the heck, it looks like some one was prying on that with a screwdriver". It dumps gas out the top whenever it is running. I took some pics of the damage and will try to post them. I don't know if they will show up. [/b]
If the airhorn has been damaged, repair may be a job for a professional (or acquire a different airhorn from a carburetor of the same tag number). I personally would still redo this one above using one of the clones. Others may have differing opinions.

Good carburetion is fuelish hot air
The most expensive carburetor is the wrong one you attempt to modify.
