Default Source for replacement FI nozzle blocks

For you guys who do your own FI work, can you recommend a source for GOOD repo 57-62 nozzle blocks.
I need to order a full set for an FI unit I just received. It's been several years since I bought blocks, so I'm not sure what is a good source now.

Tom;
I'll be seeing Gary Hodges this weekend at the Puyallup Swap Meet. I know he carries them. The catalog I have is several years old so I'm sure the prices are outdated but you can call him at 503-588-3883. Let me know if you want me to pick some up for you.

I'm also interested as I have one that will soon need replacing. Found a complete set last year NOS on Epay, was thinking why not replace all four but price was like most fuelie parts, "way over priced", so I passed on it, if I remember correctly it was around 800. a set!

If you need some, I wouldn't wait too long. I talked to Gary this weekend at the swap meet and he said he is now selling the nozzle blocks for $120.00 ea. He also said that some reproduction parts may become unavailable as Obama's economy is killing a lot of guys that need to concentrate on activities that generate a living. The limited production stuff will be the first go get dropped. Sad but true. Gary is a great guy and he knows his stuff.
