Denny, I'm not sure of the wording but in post #8 it seems like he's saying it has a correct 8ba carb (with port) on it currently, but the PO had mistakenly sent an early style carb for rebuilding. So the current owner now has that Charlie NY early carb sitting on the bench and can't use it as a tester as it doesn't have the vacuum port.
