Dean at Datsunparts.com usually has the Z Therapy rebuilt carbs in stock. Not sure how his price compares to going direct to ZT, but not waiting 10 months is a big bonus. Plus, Dean's come with gaskets, oil, and a heatshield.

I did a bunch of organizing yesterday in prep for working on Peggy.
Of course, while doing so, I HAD to get one of Penny's donor cars ready so the engine could be pulled. This is what ADHD is like.

I'm not sure what I'll do with the two engines/transmissions given I'm pretty sure Penny will end up with a more modern drivetrain.
It might be fun to rebuild one or both of them as backups for Peggy. This will give me an excuse to find a good machine shop around here.
(Hold on a second, didn't I swear I'd never rebuild an engine myself again? I've done it twice and had to get both "finished" by a pro. Sigh.)
