Are there any places that are re-producing theses carbs or making aftermarket replicas.

My carb is in very bad condition (the float has a few holes bent jets etcc.. very dirty)

I know they have rebuild kits but i want a full complete carb that i can slap on and go.

    There might be a few freshly rebuilt ones for sale. But your probably looking at having yours refurbished. Walt (he'll probably speak up shortly) does an awsome job I hear. there's also plenty of shops you can send them to for refurbishing. Daytonaparts.com off the top of my head. Try 21stcenturyhudson.net for carb kits. I've sucessfully repaired floats with a dab of JB weld over the holes/cracks. There's plenty of folks here with the other small parts you might need.

    Daytona Parts supposedly has a new 1bbl 'universal' carb coming out, looks to be a Holley 1904. Might be interesting to play with.
  • Walt is in Maui, HI at the moment and he thinks he may have a carb for your engine. I return home on the 24th and will check and get back to you if you can wait. Walt.
  • Hey, thanks for the offer. I'm currently considering buying a WA-1 from a guy that claims its old stock from the 60's never had fuel run though it. He can't make out the brass tag to verify the model number but said its universal fit? Also its from a shutdown Chysler dealership that had an estate sale to sell what stock was left. It looks the same but might the only diff be the jet size? Anyways if im still looking by the 24th il take you on your offer thanks, Mitch

    If it is a universal carb you will have to tune it to your engine. there will be an adjustable jet under the cover, a small screw beside the metering rod. you may have to enable the economiser piston as well by unhooking a torsion spring. It will most likely be manual choke if it is a universal fitment.

    I have a WA-1 Carter carb with tag #749S that is free and had been rebuilt and painted before I bought it a couple of years ago. Let me know if you're interested, I will not be using it.
  • My carbs tag is 2009SA? will it fit?

    Close but no cigar. I gave a couple of rebuilt 2013s, which I think are for Jet Twin-H.
