The standard military is a Holley, that carb was used on lots of other things in the 1960's and is not a bad unit. Kits are available and cores as well.

Welcome to the site. You guys in Greece have all the nice US surplus . . .

Holley 1920. Memphis Equipment has the rebuild kits.

Be sure to set the float level as per the instructions. It makes a big difference.

A bad coil is the most common reason the 230 ohc doesn't run. Also, you might find you need to rebuild the fuel pump.
