Hello!

I picked up a used Edelbrock 1411 performer carburetor and while rebuilding and cleaning it up I found that one of the secondary venturi boosters is damaged. The very tip of the large pickup tube has broken off, leaving a larger diameter hole at the end. I can't seem to find where to source this part. Edelbrock's catalog seems to only offer typical rebuild parts and I can't find an alternative source. I've attached a picture of the intact (left) and damaged (right) boosters.

I don't think I'd be lucky enough to find something like this in the local junkyard, and if I did, I doubt they'd be happy to sell me less than the whole carb. Where would I find a replacement?

 

You might find a parts carb on ebay or at a swap meet. There is a strong likelihood that there are different booster assemblies, however.

I would try phoning up Edelbrock, since the carbs are still in production they might be able to supply you with a replacement part.
