Got the pics. As was stated, it's got a gear drive conversion on the pass. side, so a conventional return spring on the primary side will suffice.

I would advise replacing the primary throttle blades, however; whoever drilled bypass holes in them drilled the holes in the wrong place, and unless the carb is going on something with a pretty wild cam, you'll have trouble getting it to idle correctly.

Dave;

I replied to your email.

The primary blades are the same as an 850, no problem there.
