I recommend you find a new place to buy parts.
About the only things in common between the model B and Monojet are that
they are both Rochester 1 - barrels and have the same base bolt patterns.
The Monojet uses a totally different fuel metering system. It has a square,
not round, float chamber, is clearly marked "Monojet" on the float bowl
chamber.
Any junkyard that hasn't crushed everything over 10 years old should have
some of these carbs and can show you the difference.
