Default Quadrajet rebuild

I was wondering if anyone knew of someone that does a good job rebuilding a quadrajet? I have a 75 vert with a L82 engine that I am finishing a new paint job on and the carb needs to be rebuilt. I pulled it of and my brother put a kit in it, but I put it on today and can't keep the car running. The car has 66,000 miles so I want to keep everything original. I don't have any experience with these carbs, so I won't try the rebuild myself. Any information would be appreciated

His name is Lars. You don't need any other names.

Do you know what Lars gets for a rebuild by any chance? I have a 7029215 BB carb that most likely needs a rebuild and I want it done right, I was thinking of doing it myself but depending on cost Id like to have Lars do it considering how much positive feedback he gets on the board

thanks
Jon
