George,
I just called the local auto parts store that has been giving me GREAT
prices. They want $180 for the 1850 - but the said that has the manual
choke. The carb with the electric choke is 80457 and is $200. Both instock.
So, I'd say that Fast Times at $190 (w/elec choke) isn't a bad price.
I guess that inflation for you!!
