Carburetor Float

Anyone know of a replacement float for the Stromberg MV-1B carburetor used on my 1924 Star? My original is cork but all deteriorated.

Didn't know if there is a company that can make new ones from Nitrophyl material?

Also, could use a new needle valve and seat at this is constantly leaking. I have heard that this is a chronic issue with this series.

Thanks

While there might be something somewhere; I am unaware of any off-the-shelf parts for this carburetor.

 

Custom parts for the early tillotson carbs are EXPENSIVE!

 

I always have thought Marvel deliberately used weird sizes and very little interchangability to cut down on others making parts for their carburetors. Tillotson took this concept to a much higher level.
