Amazon/Ebay Carberator

Anyone have any luck with the 2 barrel carburetors found on amazon or ebay. I currently have a 2100 and 2 2150 carbs laying around that need complete rebuilds. Was looking into just picking up one of these to hold me over till I upgrade intake manifold and to a 4 barrel. And yes I know people will say save the money and upgrade but unable to at the moment. Just looking for input if anyone has used any of them.

or if anyone wants to trade me 3 carbs for 1 good carb let me know!

Why not take the best carb you have and rebuild it, it's not that hard and a kit cant be too much $.

I'm trying this route also. Local rebuilder wants 200$ to rebuild, and when I'm trying to find the correct rebuild kits I may as well be buying tampons it's so confusing.

There is only ONE 2100 series rebuild kit for 1963/74. There are THREE possible 2150 rebuild kits just for 1975/79. 1980 and later are different.
