4MV fuel bowl vent cover?

(1/2) > >>

unruhjonny:
Are these, or have these ever been available as a replacement part?

The one infront of me carried the following stamped identifier;
RP 35431

I also am wondering if the vent and vent actuating linkage is, or ever has been available...

Mostly curious - but I could use some parts to complete some of my spare cabs to being 100% correct & complete.

 What carb number are we talking about here?

I believe I pulled this cover off a 7029213, but not being a big Chevy guy, I don't know all the OEM Chev Carbs which used a front vented setup like the 1967-1970 Ponatiac's;
My Pontiac carbs which use this are: 7029268, 7040262, 7040263, 7040264, and there are many more...

Here is an ebay auction which shows one of these carbs, and this front vent cover (and underlying vent setup) in question;

 7029213 is an invalid carb number. Carb 7028213 used part number 7035431 for the front vent cover. Not sure if there were ever replacements, but I know they probably do now. Not exactly sure about your question? Sorry.

maybe it was a 7029211;
it was a truck 1969 350/mt carb, and at the end of the day, I figured it was of negligable worth, so considering my stockpile of carbs, I disassembled it.

I'm sorry, but you seem to be focusing on a specific carb number (which is why I didn't list a number in my first post), and not the part(s) that I am asking about;
I linked an auction which has a picture of a 7040263 which also uses this fuel bowl vent cover setup;

I am asking if the vent cover has ever been available as a replacement.

I have seen some chevy & pontiac carbs which had this vent setup removed, and simply replaced with a metal plug (tangs bant backwards inside the carb top kept it closed).

Hopefully that clarifies things a smidgeon. :D
