Another good place to get any kind of carb parts is from one of the local carb rebuilders. They keep old carb around for parts.
As for Holley being junk as so many on here think, then why are they still in business and the others went out of business years ago? Only reason Edlebrock pick up the rights is so you'd be stuck with their piece of trash once you got one. Edlebrock had to do some MAJOR mods just to get "their" carbs to work Just like Carter gave up trying.

Since I have seen so much about carb preference here lately, I just wanted to put in my $.02. I think Holley produces a higher quality carb than Edelbrock. I have never seen anything that made any decent power using an Edelbrock carb always either Holley BG (which is a Holley knock-off) or FI. The most disappointing thing to me about the Edelbrocks is the you have to use a scale and set the float ddepth by bending the float tab. That is pretty lame. They do look nice on show cars though.
