I'm looking for a set of carbs that are totally junk as far as the bodies go, I am only interested in the throttle (butterfly) shafts and e-clips. Preferably the shafts should move, as seized shafts could be rusted, and that is what I don't want. All floats and other hardware can be pulled out before the sale as well. Again, I'm only interested in the throttle shafts. If you have shafts already separated from the carbs, then that would be even better.
 
I have some shafts from carbs I have pulled over the years but I don't know for sure which all xs400 carbs they came from:laugh: If you could post some pics of your shafts I may be able to put a set together:thumbsup:
 
Hope this helps. They need to have little or no rust and be non-corroded on the end where the e-clip groove is.

I only have just the one as everything else is pre-80 stuff and is setup different than later carbs. It's clean but not new. If you want it you can have it for $7 shipped as I no longer even use these style of carbs anymore. The clip I have is solid but not rust free. Your local hardware store should have these.
