Default Source for early 70s QJet Primary Rods

So, I've learned that for best results I need to use the "B" rods that are appropriate for my 1971 QJet. I've got a "tuneup" set of the later rods (non-"B") from Holley (they sold the kits to go with their QJet clone carb they used to sell) and they just don't seem to transition as nicely.

I've tuned for WOT and I know my primary jets like to be 73 (not the 71 that is "correct" for the carb stock) and so I need bigger rods to get correct idle and cruise. I'm on 45B and I feel it's close but needs to go a bit leaner. Probably 46B or 47B. But Carbs Unlimited (where I got the last ones) don't have these sizes available. Not many people seem to sell them. Any good sources for these early 70s rods? I'm guessing those sizes are hard to find because they are popular..
