Performance Carb Rebuild

I contacted PB and J racing a while ago to do a rebuild of my carb, and got a reply right away, recently i tried contacting them again through their website with no luck. Is there any other company that does performance rebuilds of the original 12a carb specifically the one that is in my 78 Savanna lol.

Nope, if you want the best, and pretty much only, then you take a number and get in line. P B&J will take care of you, keep trying.

Lol fair enough. As far as pics, i'll have to try and take some tonight. The car is still kind of in pieces in the process of being restored. It was infested with mice. Runs fairly well though. Just needs a carb rebuild and some vacuum lines replaced. A true barn car lol.

Lol, no problem at all! Believe me I understand. I'm not in a huge rush to get it done, I think I sent you both an e-mail and a request thing through your website. The e-mail has the conversatino we had probably 7 months ago at the bottom lol.

Carl and Sterling do outstanding work! If you want the best, then that's where you'll want to go. I've been running one of their carbs for about a year now and loving it!

Here's a video of my car on a very short (but fun) course.. http://youtube.com/watch?v=MuzeHxIXy...elated&search=

That was the day I came within 2/100ths of a second from taking down a lovely new Porsche...
