What air horn can I use for a 7042263 Quadrajet?
One of the accelerator pump ears on my ‘72 Quadrajet is cracked and I want to replace the air horn, since I can’t find the exact carb as a core, what other numbers can I use?

The airhorn used on the 7042263 carburetor is unique to that application.
If it were mine, I would simply repair the original. It really is not difficult, I have posted the method on this forum in the past. Jon

I've got a desirable core that has this ear broken. Its been in a box of carbs for years, I figured it was wasted. Thanks for this!

Repair is realistic. Did that and it held for, well probably still holding.
