Where can I buy 1966 metering rods?

[johnson1550]

In the process of rebuilding my TQ carb and noticed that the outside edge of the metering rods (throughout the transition area) were worn flat. Where can I find a good set of 1966 metering rods? Does this flat spot on the side affect the performance that much? Thanks

Hit one of your local swap meets & look for a TQ core. I picked a bunch of them up for 5-10 bucks each. I've since sold all of them off after building them from parts as I could.

This guy is a wealth of knowledge and has tens of thousands of parts. He told me on the phone that he actually makes metering rods.
