Here's another example, it's gold but looks to have been possibly replaced at one time or another so it's not good solid evidence, I'll know more once I get it appart. What carb # do you have?

Scott, yes that is the correct part. So I guess it would be the same plating as what my spark coil bracket would be then.
If it was silver, yes, that's the type of plating you'd need. The problem is that most carbs have been rebuilt, and some were incorrectly plated at that time. I photograph each carb I recieve before plating (these two are examples of carbs I restored before I touched them) and try to determine if they are original or not before continuing. It's not always easy determining which color they were originally, sometimes impossible if they've already been restored somewhere else, but typically there are enough clues remaining to get it right.
