If you want to purchase from one of the retailers, Bert's does an excellent rebuilt Zenith.

If you want to keep it in the family, Brentwood Bob here on the Ford Barn rebuilds Zeniths.

Because of past problems with rebuilt Zenith carburetors, I tried a new Zenith 1 from Mac’s.

Right out of the box, no carburetor problems at all. A lot more money but runs like a champ. Enjoy.

Sometimes you get lucky . There are lots of good carb rebuilders that post here . Considering the large amount of original Parts and knowledge that they have I would think there would be a good chance that Berts would have the exact Zenith carb on hand that you are looking for .

The carb I bought from Berts was perfect. No leaks, no stalling when stopping, just great performance all around. Highly recommend.

I have been running a Bert's rebuilt Zenith for 6 years and have never had a problem. They are a very classy and reputable seller.
