Trying to decide if I should pay the extra $$$ and get a new or newer set of dells or is it resonable to get a used set and rebuild?

Do the rebuild kits usually make the carbs run OK or is there more to it?

thanks,
dr

I've never bought a 'used' carb where I didn't have to go through the whole thing.
Not for a good deal anyway.
I don't trust what the P.O did .....ever.
My car runs perfect, perfect compression, great power...and I'm still paranoid about whats in the engine-it may run perfect for 10 more years and I bet when I tear it down there's somethin' screwy in there! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
If you buy a used set of carbs who care where they came from you need to go through them or you're asking for it. So, in that respect, it don't matter where the carbs orginated.
