Default Misrepresentation of Carburetor

I don't mean to ruffle anyone's feathers but this really gets under my skin.

joparts is selling a fake LS6 4492 Holley carb. How does this guy....or anyone get away with this.

It's very easy to see that it has the provision in the secondary's for the squirter....which is incorrect.

He takes the pictures in ways to hide the reproduction baseplate and those are very clear but the picture of the choke horn with the numbers are blurry. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/bs.gif[/img]

His description is appalling in my opinion. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">This is a new never used Holley carburetor dated 9A1. It fits 1970 Chevelle, LS6, SS, 454, Camaro, Nova, L78, 396. If doing a restoration, this is a must for you. Why pay for used junk that will need to be rebuilt for $400-$1000 when you can get a new Holley 4492 for automatic trans cars. It has GM number 3969898 GR. The Date is 9A1 which translates to 1969 November 1st week. </div></div>

His description is VERY MISLEADING.

Sorry for the rant but for people like me, who try to be as honest as possible, it really gets on my nerves that someone might purchase this thinking it's a real deal carb.
