You can try here, Carburetor, Carburetors, Carbs, Carb Parts. Pony Carburetors - Your Ford Carburetor Restoration and Part Sales Specialist not sure how "inexpensive" it will be.
A local mechanic may be a better bet on a budget. Plus they can adjust it on the vehicle.
Those are pretty simple to rebuild, not a lot of parts if I recall.

I have already put a kit in the carb only to figure out that the throttle shaft is very worn and the accelerator pump screws are partially stripped. I don't know how to re bush throttle shafts and I think a shop could do a better job of re tapping the threads for the accelerator pump screws. So hopefully I can find a shop that will rebuild the carb for a good price. Thanks for the recommendation!

I just called LMC and the representative wouldn't give me any information about who or how they rebuild their carburetors. Looks like I won't be going to LMC for a carb.
