I've decided that the ongoing problems with the carb ('55 235 in my '47-2 
Thriftmaster), I changed out the needle valve back to the original and still 
had the overflow problem, so I adjusted the float in the up position to 7/32" 
lower than the spec with hopes that this would keep the level lower than the 
top of the bowl.  This slowed the filling, but didn't stop the problem.   I 
now think that it is the FLOAT.... augggh!   None of the FLAPS around has a 
float for the rochester "c" 1bbl.  Any one know of a NAPA number or anything 
that I could use, or maybe a float out of a latter model that I could use?

In short, Does anyone have a float? or does anyone know of a source?

TIA
