Carburetor, anyone?

Hello all, After seeing several threads on fuel injection in the last months, does anyone have an aft or rear position CD 150 Stromburg carburetor for sale (or both for that matter). In a former life the float pin pivot posts were knocked off on the rear carb of my series V and replaced with brass sheet stock bent into a "U" and screwed to the roof of the carb float chamber. This arrangement apparently worked for the first 4000 miles or so since I got the car running again but now I suspect cracking of the screw holes leading to flooding of cyls #3 and #4 after the engine is hot and shut-off for 15 minutes. (Very hard starting and wet 3 & 4 plugs; float level and needle valve and seat good) I could seal the area with Devcon but this wouldn't be a lasting fix and I would rather have an "unbroken" carb body if I if I could obtain one. Thanks in advance, Dave Milo
