| Carb Rebuild
Looking for a shop that does carb rebuilding (in the lower mainland), anyone know a good one? Friend told me I should try a hot rod shop, but anyone who does good work is fine by me.
TIA!

1983 Mazda RX-7, Nikki carb. It's got a different bottom plate on it though. The carb itself is the newer version, but the lower plate is the older version (if that makes any sense at all).
How much would I be looking at to have it rebuilt by you guys?

If I'm incorrect I'd have to see the carb. Is it possible for you to bring it in?

Um, as far as I understand it, yes. A friend of mine put it together for me when he removed the rats nest. He said it had better throttle plates.
Are you open on sundays?

I'll be at the meet, but in a different car. My rx isn't running right now because of the carb. Would it work if I just brought the carb or do you need the entire car lol. (I'm new at this, sorry >.<)

Okay, I'm just looking around to see who can do it, what they'll charge right now. Don't get paid for a few weeks yet But if I can find someone to help me pull it off the car, I'll track you down at the meet tomorrow
