Any other year carbs compatable with '78 750K?

I've got a '78 750K with only 13627 miles but barn stored for 15 years.  Carbs corroded beyond cleaning or repair.  Does anyone know if any other year carbs are compatable without any issues?

Only issue is the rubbers. They are different sizes. The 77/78 had larger ones.

Alan, did you have issues with the rubber boots being too big on your '78 or did the '75 carbs just slip in and work without any modification?

The 77/78 carbs used larger boots. The older will work ok though, just need the right boots for them.

1970 went to a 2 cable system. So it was only the 69 that had a single pull.

This is all great info and helps me to figure out what to do to get my bike rumbling down the road again.  It'll be interesting to hear that 4 into 2 exhaust someday!
