I'm pretty sure was only cosmetic styling changes between the carbed 400's should fit okay .

I would take a look at the Fowlers Parts Sites / Listings - may give a clue with Part Numbers etc...

I would also check part numbers bud. Other than the body pay particular attention to jet sizes, they almost invariably change over time due to emission regulations

Plus engine displacement increased with age
went up a bit from ( i think it was ) 385cc to 400cc..if my aged grey cell remembers correctly.
