I will snag a picture tomorrow but there are rivets or something instead of screws so it seems like the best option is to just buy a carb that I can re-jet easily, no? Maybe I am missing something with this carb.

A little bit premature but I'm also looking into Henner's kits for more power, though I haven't even ridden the thing yet.
You can use a dremel to notch a line in each rivet to allow a flat head screwdriver to remove each screw. Just so you know the pilot is odd and most kits won't work. Easiest way to go is to replace with a VM26 and then use a standard kit to be able to change the pilot, main plus allows for adjusting the clip on the needle jet which with stock you need to shim with a washer or two
