  Wow, $275 is a steal.  I've seen them in the $350 - $400 range normally. 

  You may want to try Carmen Faso out in NY.  He has a lot of nail head parts, I've been in part of his shop and basement of his house.

 I too have known Carmen for about the same time. Great guy and extremely knowledgeable.

Sounds like you and I run the same financials. haha Sold or traded stuff off to only need it later. lol

How did they put the 3bbl on? Can you do that with an adapter? Just curious because I have one of those carbs and you do not see too many of them anymore.
