Question 1963 1BC for the Trophy 4

Just got back from a long weekend in Austin at the Lonestar Round up.
Once again we drove the hell out of the Ol Tempest and had a blast.
However she was giving me a bit of a fit with early morning start ups.
I'm looking for a replacement carb and/or an optional alternative for trouble free driving.
Love to hear from anyone with some good input/options.
Cheers.

AUTO.
The one on the car is NOS but I'd rather find another and/or upgrade if I can rather then make the car immobile.
I'll send that one out once I secure a substitute.
Cheers.

Thanks guys,
I think we found a functional replacement to use while the NOS is sent off/out for freshening up.
Cheers.
