Float for the carb

Looking for a carb float for my 79 kz750. The one in there is dented. I cant seem to track any down. It has the stock carbs on it. Thank you for your time.

How badly damaged?
Possibly repairable?
Pic?

Per kawasaki.com, the same float (Part No. 16031-030) was fitted to 13 models (see below).

Good Fortune! :)

I know you said "stock", but exactly which carbs on on the bike? Ed

If not already done, might want to check with Sudco at its website.

If it still floats, and doesnt fill with gas, then use it. you will have to test to make sure you can still obtain correct fuel height, and if so, then its fine.
