Fire in the Vol... 120-130 1967

Hello All:

1967 Volvo 122S wagon. Not sure how it happened, but it has been VERY cold here in New York this week, and the short fuel line between my SU-6's seems to have ruptured and set fire to the engine. We got it out very quickly with minimal damage to speak of. I decided to pull both carbs and rebuild them with new fuel lines and gaskets. Here is what I need:

A new jet for my front carb. I assume the jets and needles are matched sets, and I have no idea what size my current needles are. The car is very stock so not sure if that helps.

A new damper for my front carb (the little black star-shaped thingy on top).

A new choke control cable.

I have what remains of the jet which is essentially the bronze jet tube itself. The line connecting it to the float bowl totally vaporized. The needle is in perfect shape. Can anyone tell me how to determine what jet I need? Also, any suggestions about where I can get the jet(s), control cables and damper? I am happy to use Joe Lazenby but not sure if he has jets. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Pooch
