where to get new Flathead 6 carb float

The title line says it all-is there anywhere to get a NEW float for my Carter ball in ball carb? For some reason this cornsqueezins that they call gasoline eats the solder up in my floats and sinks them.I have 2 floats and have repaired them twice(drilled,drained,solded up the hole and then coated 'em with POR 15)but I don't trust them and would really like a new unit.
Oh, this is for my 51 Cranbrook-I've checked the usual parts houses(NAPA,Auto Zone ect) with no luck.thanks for any help,Dave

what about ceramic coating like on headers ??just an idea

Thanks for the link-I have a catolog on the way as well as a Ply-Do catolog we'll see what they have.
Any other ideas would be welcomed too

You can also swap to a slant 6 carb. It bolts to the flathead 6 intake and the stock flat 6 linkage hooks up to the carb if you drill the hole in the carb linkage just a little bigger. Factory slant 6 jetting is fine.

i've done this swap before, and as stated, it works great ! plus, it's super easy to get kits and parts. well worth thinking [and doing !] about !
