Carburetor ID

[iceman_t1]

I pulled the carburetor off the Pres and I'm looking for the model number. I found a metal tag that has the number 2214SA. My shop manual says this should be a 2219SA for the Y body Pres. Does this mean that I don't have the original carb? What is the difference between the 2214 and the 2219? Should I just rebuild this one and slap it back on or search for a 2219?

After some more research, I found that the 56H with auto transmission came with a 2214.

Miscreant at large.

Ok, taking a break from the rebuild. I got the air horn completely apart. All the parts are laid out in the order they were removed. Compared the old gasket to the new one and they match.

Chug, chug, chug...

Going back for the bottom half...
