Default supertigre st60

I have an old supertigre 6O ST engine, which has been good kept for almost 30 years. I have been flying and with it last 4 weeks, but the needle of its carburator has been broken. Anybody knows where can I find parts for this engine, or what actual carburator its possible assamble in?
Thank in advance
Luis

thank you for your reply.

The carburator of your ST60 is the old PERRY type, or it's a modern carburator?

Neither. It's the old ST type. You can see the Higley NV in the photo.

Neither. It's the old ST type
And a better carb than either the Perry or new ST type.

Luis, you can get the bearings from [link=https://securehost99.hrwebservices.net/~mcintos/rc-bearings/catalog/]RC Bearings[/link].

Buy a new ring, if you need one, from:

Frank Bowman

1211 N Allen Ave. Farmington, N.M. 87401-3568

505-327-0696

ringmaster46 ~ at ~ msn.com

You might find other parts from [link=http://www.paulsmodelsupply.com/]Paul's Model Supply[/link], [link=http://bobsengines.com/]Bob's Engines[/link], or at that auction place.

I'm looking for a needle valve assembly for my old st60 supertigre carburator, but I'm not able to find it. Do you know where? I bought a needle at tower hobbies as you told me, but where a needle valve assembly?
Thanks and regards
Luis
