    Can't you find a good carb shop in McAlester or maybe Poteau? That carburetor is not that difficult to work on - I would think that you could find a good shop without going too far from home. Mena or Fort Smith are not that far from you, either, or even Tulsa? Ask the local racers and I bet you'll find someone close and save the shipping costs.

    not as easy as it sounds......the hardest part is to find a mechanic.....not a parts changer......once you get over that hurdle....then its easy......most parts changers today dont have the first clue of rebuilding stuff.....plug the computer to the car and change the part.

    OK, then how about Mike at The Carb Shop in CA? The Carb Shop Rebuild Repair Restore I saw something about his shop in an article some time back, and he's been in business 46 years which says something for him.... I have no personal experience with his shop, just a reference.
