Not generally, I should think.... There are some British car specialists.
However, there is a large trade in used parts at swap meets, on the
internet, via club newsletters, etc.

To revert to SU carbs you probably want the same variety as originally
furnished. I believe this is the HS-4 -- it was used for many years. Some

complete linkage and manifolds for an MGB, or you will be looking all over
the place for various small bits.

My opinion is that it is unnecessary. My B is going on 16 years/60K miles
lead-free, with no discernible problems.
