If the issue is the carb itself, have you thought about a Weber carb kit? I bought one for my 280C, years ago. For about $400, you get the mating kit, the carb, and any other hardware you might need to do it. In all, it took me 20 minutes to do the swap. You reuse the old air cleaner and everything - no tinkering or post-engineering needed. Weber also has different jets that you can install for different things (such as performance mods, etc).
