It is likely that the jetting will be different from other cars. If you are just looking for a like for like replacement for the current carb, why not buy the specific rebuild kit for your carb from Burlen Fuels, just type in the number on the tag on the float chamber into their search engine and it brings back all the part numbers and service kits for that carb, you can buy direct.
Carbs aren't that difficult, you just have to be careful and methodical, Burlen will even sell you a booklet on how to do the job.

Stu, I would go with Chris on this. You could buy a good second hand carb only to find out that you are back at square one again. If you get the kit then you will know the carb will be good for many years to come
