Weber carb parts???

Does anyone know of a good source to get jets and other parts for weber carbs? I've searched the web and I've come up empty trying to find some of the stuff I need. Just wondering if any other fellow Canadians have any good sources to go to.

They are owned by Rotary Reliability and Racing in California.

Racing Beat sent me to them for parts for our Racing Beat modified Weber IDA. They even custom machined some chokes for us that fit perfectly.

I did find, they are owned/run by mechanics, not sales people. So, they really knew their stuff, but friendly small talk and a sales pitch wasn't really their forte.

I'll have to give them a call. The biggest problem I'm having is finding a 300 (3.00mm) needle and seat. Weber carbs direct in NY have everything else I need and at a good price too. How were the prices from that place do you remember?

Well, the custom chokes were a bit pricey as you basically bought a set of chokes (at normal Weber prices) and then paid for an hour of labor for them to machine them.

I remember the rest of the prices on stuff as "fair" (needed some jets and stuff) but it was 2 or 3 years ago now, so can't remember the details, sorry.

Jay-Cee Enterprises in Huntington Beach CA if you want to mod your 48 to 51. Not sure about RR&R but Jaycee build them for Racing Beat. Jack, the owner, is a well known VW guy. He tought me a lot about modding IDAs many years ago

I have the carb and intake already, just looking for the pieces I need to tune it. I found a 300 needle and seat through weberjets.com. All the rest of the stuff I need I think I'll just order through weber carbs direct. Thanks for the input guys.
