Default CV Carb parts sources?

I just picked up a used 92 CV carb in good condition, for my EFI to carb swap. I planned to go with a Mikuni HSR42, but can't swing the $ right now. I need to order a carb rebuild kit for the CV, as well as a jet kit. Is CV Performance as good as any for these items? They are here: http://www.cv-performance.com/

I have no affiliation with these folks. I do get stuff from them as needed.

Thanks for the input! CV Performance seems to be what most folks mention, on the various Harley forums. Their prices seem reasonable, so I figured I will give them a shot. There's some CV rebuilding guru on Ebay, that a lot of people seem to go with. Can't think of his Ebay member ID at the moment? I can't swing the $197 or whatever his is asking for them right now - that's why I am just going with the CV Performance stuff.

You must be talking about Dale of Killer MC Products. That dude really knows his ****. He's busy with a lot of Carbs, so turn around takes about a month. But it's certainly worth the wait and the money. It made a huge improvement on my bike. His customer service is excellent and he stands behind his products as well. It's money very well spent IMO.
