so im a huge idiot and im kicking myself really hard.
Story;
Got some nice, new and expensive vm34s. Used them a summer until one of the air screws kept unthreading itself and making the bike run lean on one cylinder. I dont know how this was happening as it has that spring pushing against it. Anyway, I grabbed some locktite and applied it to the air screw.
Turns out the locktite that i used was the permanent stuff (red kind).

So I go to slightly adjust the air screw one day and with a little bit of pressure, the two wings of the flathead part break off. And now i cant get it out. Tried drilling it out, but it just wont go.

Anyway, does anyone have an extra vm34 carb body kicking around? I dont need the bowl, jets, or anything. just the body.
 
I think I may actually have one. Let me double check to make sure it isn't a 38 though
 
still looking. and just to clarify. this is the model im looking for. and i just need the carb body.

^ yea, i tried that. but the end of the air screw sheered off so that it was flush with the carb. So when the locktite was hot and viscous, i had nothing to grip onto to turn it.
