try this #, 801-747-3341. it used to be for ACE (air cooled engineering). the company changed hands and the name. if the # isn't current you may get the correct one if you call.

Joe,

Try these guys:

http://www.carburetion.com/sitesearch.aspx...A%20Carburetors

Website says they have them in stock.

I got a pair there a couple of years ago (ACE didn't have them at the time).

Hope this helps!

Contact Alfa1750 on Ebay! The guys name is David. He's in Italy and specializes in Dellorto carbs. I've bought rebuilt carbs and other parts from him in the past. There is also a company in the UK that is on Ebay snd they specialize in Dellorto carbs too although they're more expensive and I've never dealt with them personally. Alfa1750 is a great resource.

that's good to know.

info from Blackline's site:

"They made the purchase in February of 2013 and opened the doors as Blackline Racing. They continued to employ Dave Hogarth, ACE carburetor specialist since 2004."

Dave does good work--he may have some floats on hand.

What happened to ACE? I had them rebuild some 45's a few years ago when they were the place to go.

Ordered from Alfa 1750 in Italy. CB doesn't have them and the carb guys in Washington don't answer the phone and are double the money. Alfa guy says he can have them here in 2-3 days.

Thanks for the help

David (alfa1750) has always been great to deal with. I've always received my shipments from him in Italy in less than a week! Buy carbs from him and he'll set them up perfectly for your application. All balanced and bench tested. He's awesome!

Wow, I can't believe he's still at it, I bought Dellorto parts from him fifteen YEARS ago.
