Carb kits

I rebuilt my Motorcraft two barrel and purchased the kit from Napa. I must say the quality of the gaskets left much to be desired. I ended up using the old top gasket because even with its age it was much thicker and robust. The gaskets in the Napa kit were poor. Anyone know where to get good rebuild kits with quality gaskets?

Thumbs up Plug for a good Carburetor part vendor

I'd like to put in a plug for Pony Carburetors. About three years after getting the standard, but incorrect parts, they made good on a stack of gaskets, and replaced them all without a hassle. Even though it was clearly my fault.

Great people, give them a try.
