Stolen!

Went to start my 1985 f-700 dump truck today and the pedel hit the floor. After opening the hood found that the carburetor had been stolen.
Can any one tell me what the most affordable caburetor would be to replace?
All i Know is that the air cleaner says "370 4v"

Thanks.

I'd go with a 600 Edelbrock,summit has them pretty cheap, great carb, easy to tune. can't believe the *******s stole your carb, thats jacked up.

I'd agree with the poster who said to get a lock on the hood. 25+ years ago I went to school with a few guys who would do things like steal a battery from a car.......then they would go back 24-48 hours later to the same car and steal the brand new replacement.
I'm sure the only thing hotter than the stolen battery was the owner of the car.
