Default Can a DLE 55 carb be reversed?

I have a plane that first owner had a DLE 55 engine on it. I went to install my DLE on plane and found throttle cable on other side of my carb. Can I just remove the two bolts holding carb and just rotate it 180 degrees and put it back on? Would this cause any problems with engine? It will take a lot of work to relocate throttle servo and cable, hope to find easy fix. Thank you for any help you can give.

Yes, rotate the carb and reed block as an assembly. No problem at all!
