Hello Warren,
Tried to send you a PM but your mailbox is full. Wanted to let you know the rocker panels arrived in my internet buddies car in Melbourne thank you. They will get to Hobart one day I hope. Am still looking for a 7042216 for my '72 if you can help.

Regards,
Chris

westwinds,

I have an LS6 with the same stamping date. You would need an 092 dated carburetor to be absolutely correct. However George has a 083 carb date that would be as close as you're probably going to find. These carburetors were batch built, just like the cars.

Hey Shark,
I talked to the boss and he said he would be interested in the carb for a fair price.

Thanks
