My father and I are planning to rebuild a Detroit Lubricator carburetor for his 1932 Ford Sedan. His car currently has a 1936-ish block, heads, and intake. I had found a 1933 intake on Facebook, but later discovered the generator mount is unique to a 1932. Now I've located a 1932 Ford intake and generator with the correct carburetor.

Any tips for rebuilding a 1932 Ford carburetor? I'm familiar with early Farmall F-series carburetors and later model car four barrels. Looking for any tips/tricks for the Detroit Lubricator, I have a couple for cores so I figured rebuilding it ourselves would be worth a shot.
