P220G carb on a P216G?

Hi all, long story short, does anyone know if I can take a 91 520H carb and use the the nikki emissions carb off a 416H somehow to make the 520H carb function properly on the 416? I was hoping I could just swap the jets from the 416 carb into the 520 carb and make myself a non emissions carb for my 416. Probably wishful thinking since the 416 has the accelerator pump and all that, but I figured I would ask.

There are enough differences between the pump carbs vs the older ones that I wouldn’t just swap the jets.  What I did was buy an older carb and went over it.  The pump carbs may use a bit less gas, but with the backfire and cold blooded nature of those things is something I don’t want.  One blown muffler will make you a believer.   I think you can swap carbs between the 16 and 20 with no changes to jetting, fuel flow is governed by the air flow.
