Here are there specifics.  They can tell you the (propane) distributor nearest
you, and possibly might be willing to send you "the big binder."  It's easiest
to go to the distributor, chat up a responsive employee, and get him/her to
take you to the back room where they keep all the carburators.  They have a
small (~50 cfm ?) sidedraft unit that actually has a piston and a spring to
do the constant depression thing.  My former contact told me they didn't work
as well as the other style, with a diaphraghm (which resemble Strombergs, by
the way).
