        Where do you guys go to get your parts???
        I have found a few places, but the parts are hard to find...
        Just found RockAuto.com today, they have parts...
        But I'm still looking for the rockerarm assy, mine had some scratches inside...
        I'm going this far, thought I would replace it while I'm here...

            Looks like an 88L, good find! Should be a nice little carby. I got my 88L for $300, but it didn't look that good. :thumbup:
