upside down cb450 carb- intake boot and air filter still on

A nice day with a bit of rain late afternoon and evening. I rode my bicycle to mail some bills and then around Cliffton Heights park- nice houses around there. I worked some on the next carb for the cb450. It was a bit of a mess internally, I'll go back over some areas in more detail before I reassemble it. Out of the two sets(4 carbs) I am swapping parts between them and adding a few new parts to make the best set I can.

a lot of dried white residue, but no shellac
