Default Looking for V-8 Carb. for Model A

I am looking for a dependable, reliable, rebuilt Stromberg 97 Carburetor - one that does not leak - for my Model A. Where do I find it ?

Or is it better to just buy a new (English) Stromberg 97 ?

Sounds like an oxy-moron.

If you don't have a good core, buy new. Either way, Uncle Max can hook you up. A quality rebuild or sell you a brand new one. One stop shopping.

Another vote for Uncle Max. I have his rebuilt 97's on a couple cars and they run and look great. I couldn't he happier.
