Does anybody know where I can get a 6 pack carb parts? I need a vacuum operated secondary carburetor fuel bowl??i can't find them one anywhere and I'm running out of options. If I'm luck the threads on the needle seat can be repaired but if not I need an option 2 that dsnt includ forking out for and entirely new carb.

Last summer I visited his shop to pick up a center bowl order. I questioned him on the out boards. The response was he don't stock them but he can get them (at that point in time) if one really wants to "pay the price". You'll see on the website to "call" them if interested.
BTW, also known as (at least per my receipt)

Did you try calling Holley since they still make the repro Six Pack secondaries and see what Holley could do for you?

The thread repair is an easy fix.

Is there a kit for that? Where would I get that from? Obviously I'd rethread the hole but where do I get the fitting?
 
I make them myself.I use a end mill,open the hole and tap to 1/2x32 thread and install insert.
 
I am but I don't have the tools to replicate what he did. Plus idk where he got the raw material to turn into an insert or what the insert is made of.
 
What all would I need? Tap and die set, drill and the material? If you could tell me where you got the material I could try to replicate what you did.
 
You need a 1/2x32 tap,the correct size end mill and a pilot the size of the needle/seat hole to center the mill.When you enlarge the hole and you are a few thousands off,you have ruined the bowl. As for material,1/2" round stock,either steel or aluminum will work,I cut and thread the inserts on my lathe.It looks easy but it can also be frustrating.
