serious carb issues

Just installing throttle shafts may not be the fix, the base is aluminum, its most likelt worn too, i would just bite the bullet & get a new base, NOW, AED has stock type base for around 100.00 bucks includeing 4 corner idleing, but for the little extra, you can get a billet like the one i showed you, installing bushings is not that bad, but the tool is about the cost of a billet base, Hmmmmm lol.

hey Joe, thats not what i was hoping to hear lol (more money)...but i guess that makes sense...i've had another guy say the same thing, that its probably the baseplate itself thats worn, not the shafts...Hopefuly i can get a response today from the builder as to whether HE is going to send me a baseplate or not (imo he should be since that should have been checked) and then go from there...The car is SOOOO close to being on the road, and this carb issue is just a stupid headache i dont need to worry about

thanks all for the help and suggestions so far!
