Thanks guys.

I actually feel kinda bad because I couldn't get the carb to clean up as nice as I wanted it to. If you'll notice the heavy oxidation on the front of the bowl in the "before" pics, after I ran the parts through the cleaning process, that part of the bowl was pretty heavily damaged underneath the oxidation. I wound up having to run the castings through process 3 times before I could get them to take a decent conversion coating. I was afraid of doing more harm than good by making a 4th attempt (the cleaning processes are pretty aggressive) so I stopped there.

Thanks again everybody for all your kind words & support, I appreciate it more than you know.

Best wishes for a Happy New Year everyone.
Eric
