    The best carb would be a nos or refurbed Solex 34pict 3. They generally do come with the choke.

    You can buy the gasket separately in most good VW stockists.
     
  3. The best carb is your old solex given a good strip and clean, rebushed if necessary. Not hard to do. It'll be better than anything you can buy. There's not much in a carb that wears out. They usually just get gummed up with muck.
