Or go find solid plates in a junked earlier car with HS-6 carbs. Rhys will undoubtedly correct me if I get it wrong but I believe the difference in diameter on the HIF44 was upstream of the piston, not at the throttle.

The throttle plates very rarely die unless someone tries to remove them by brute force. Those little stinker screws are another matter, entirely!

Two-part epoxy will work fine too if you don't like the thought of heating the plates. On a perfectly clean part it will not come off (especially if rounded over in a glob and shaped smooth with a file later). JB weld is successfully used to reshape intake ports very often.
