Where are the best places to buy carb parts?

Im looking into rebuilding my carbs and setting them up to 3.0L specs. I would need the venturis, e-tubes, main jets, etc, and also some linkages. Im local to PMO, but does anyone know how to get in touch with them besides a fax? I dont think they list their phone #. Any other places, online or otherwise. Wait... does Wayne carry these parts?

PMO makes new cloned Webers....belive it or not, Motor Meister has good prices on Weber parts and has been good at rebuilding them as well as shaft replacement.

I just got a Weber rebuild kit from PMO and wasen't too thrilled about it- few of the jet washers were the right size (some were brass instead of copper), the gaskets were paper-like, and none of the O-rings were the right size. I had to go to a local Metric store to finish up. My understanding is that PMO isn't answering their phones anymore and accepts only faxes from distributors.

On the other hand, I did get the external float adjustment from PMO which was very nice and had all necessary shims, and the heat insulator kit (plastic spacers with longer studs) came supplied with nice thick waxy manifold gaskets and were of excellent quality.

Also check Pierce Manifolds (http://www.piercemanifolds.com). They also perform service work such as align boring the throttle shaft bores for oversize throttle shafts on worn carbs, etc..
