I definitely don't disagree with the above opinions.
My truck is just a daily driver (running errands) during the fair-weather months only.
It now resides under cover until the Spring. Hence, time for general maintenance (ie, carb) ..not to mention undoing of ethanol damage.
If I had my drothers, I'd definitely opt for a YF 2100 if it could be found in my locale, or even a rebuilt or rebuildable core imported at a reasonable cost -- there are none.
I'd even look at a Zenith 28 or a Stromberg..
For now, it's having to fashion gaskets and parts from my shop.
And again, the kits hereabouts are now severely lacking (vs the old days), and grossly overpriced at local Napa or FLAPS.
So, as long as I've either got old expired samples or dimensions, it's gonna have to remain somewhat doable.
Yup, it's still a royal PITA though.
