    The Hot Rod Company is an Alliance vendor and they have everything you need for Strombergs and Demon 98s

    You might want to do a search for threads re: Vintage Speed before you decide to go that route. Hot Rod Company is a good source.

    All kits are not created equal. I got mine from Ken CT on the Ford barn. He was at the Turkey Run. They aren't cheap but he claims they are made in America and stand up to the Ethanol gas. I don't think any of these suppliers make their own kits. I only needed 2 and I bit the bullet. I believe there are a few professional rebuilders on the HAMB that sell the kits.

    Uncle Max recently sold me some accelerator pump return springs for the 97s that are the cat's meow. (that's a good thing) He probably sells kits too.

    I bought six of his kit's with the good accel pump's. I didn't build my carb's, i had a local 'pro' do them with MUCH more experience in 97's than me...He was very happy with them and that was good enough for me..
    He'd be worth contacting..

    Do you want whole carbs or just kits?

    Contact merc.man from Ebay.
    Fella's name is Bill and I sold him half a dozen 97's not long ago.
    Bill will also know where --if he doesn't have them-- to get rebuild kits.

    When you say "small parts," which small parts do you mean?
