Default End carb base issues

I am in the process of restoring my carbs for my 66 GTO. Both of my end carb bases are pitted pretty bad where the throttle blades seat. I have used dag 213 on previous end carbs, but they weren't pitted. I am also missing the throttle blades. Are there slightly larger blades and can I bore the bases out a bit? Or will the correct size allow a slightly larger bore? Also the throttle shaft levers have a tiny bit of play where they're pressed onto the shafts. I tried tapping on the center where its pressed but its not helping and feels like I'm going to end up breaking the mushroomed part thats holding it. Is that play okay? I'm not sure if these bases are worth continuing with if I need shafts and blades. Or just cheaper to find another pair.
