I FOUND mine on EBAY, but didn't buy it that way...most of the time you can circumvent the EBAY process by asking questions...It like anything else is just an advertising medium...

Regarding a carburetted vs FI engine, the Carbed Engine is simpler and easier for the shade tree mechainc to tune and maintain, yes a chokeless car will be a touch more finicky while warming up, but mine starts first crank every time. Where you have to be carefull is when they are warm, NEVER touvh the gas when starting or you will look silly cranking trough the flooding with the pedal down...And my 750XP performs flawlessly between sealevel and 6500 ft...
