Default Q-jet

The Q-jet on my 75 has a bad stutter and stumble when ever I stand on it from a stand still. I had planned to send to Lars for a rebuild but since he has more pressing issues at this time I was wondering where to buy a new Q-jet for now then send my other one to Lars when he is back on his feet. So who has the best price and quality with quality being the first priority. The engine is stock.

You can't buy new Q-Jets, and the rebuilt ones are all pure junk. Just send me the carb - I'll get it set up for you in no time.
