I want to put new head bolts & intake bolts in place of the old ones. The engine has one of those TEA POT carbs. who has the rebuild kits? Thanks Tom
Rebuild kits for the carb (Holley model 885FFC) are available on EBAY, Mike's carburetor parts or from Daytona in Florida. There may be more. The cheapest I've seen is around $55.
