THere are still parts available for the Carted AFB carbs. The Edelbrock carbs are the same. I have gotten all the parts including jet sets and everything for it. THe only problem I have with the Carter carbs is that they seem to go dry after sitting a long time and it takes a while to get the engine started again. I have used an electric fuel pump which I run prior to trying to start it which seems to help a lot. My brother sold me a Jeep with both a electric fuel pump and the factory manual pump. The electric is only used in high demand situations.
I have been tempted to get one of the aftermarket injection systems to get rid of the carb totally but that is $1800.
