Bendex carb on 66 318?

Been trying to get my 67 D200 running and am now down to rebuilding the carb. Looks to be a Bendex Stromberg WW. Any ideas where or even if I can get a rebuild kit for it? If not, what is a good replacement for said carb. The gaskets are shot in mine and the leather seal that used to be the accelerator pump is in shambles. Looking for some help.
Thanks

i rebuilt the stromberg on my 66 318 with a kit from napa. never did get the accelrator pump to not leak. 3 kits, no luck, guess the bore was just too shot. but i swapped it with a carter from a bit newer, 69 i think. easy rebuild, and made the truck run better then the strom. it was smoother accelerating, and seemed to have more pull at the top rpm. i recommend the swap. unless you just want to say to heck with it, go to the speed shop, get you the wieand 4bbl for the poly and a nice edelbrock 600cfm carb

Anyone have a part number for a carter ['67 or '68] jiffy kit??.... I think
the accelerator pump is going on mine.
