Have you ever tried www.rockauto.com Heavy?

They are a good alternative source for this sort of part. Let me know how it works out.

Advance Auto Parts actually carries rebuilt Holley/Motorcraft/Weber 5200s by application, but they're not cheap, and make absolutely sure everything is there when you pick it up (will have to be ordered) because they have a bad habit of showing up at the stores with the box opened and small parts missing. (as in, someone bought it, took the little piece they needed, and returned it).
