Idle Jet O-Rings source?

I've looked in auto and hardware stores for idle jet o-rings..
PartZilla has them for <gasp> 5 USD per </gasp>...

What's the preferred ethanol-proof o-ring material?

I'll keep looking, but any help sure is appreciated.

in hind sight the only o-rings that need to be Viton (Ethanol Proof) are the float needle seat o-rings. The Idle Mixture Screw o-rings and the Float Bowl Drain Screw o-rings never sit in fuel, so good ol' Buna Nitrile (Buna-N) will be fine.

Definitely spend the money on the needle seat o-rings for Viton o-rings.or you'll pay the price of  leaking seats and possibly hydro locking your engine and bending conrods.

Thank you everyone for the nice responses.

I'm currently building five racks and have decided to go w top shelf components for all of them.

Off to the O-Ring store and More 

Well, the price is right!
Might have to buy a bunch more carb racks to use up 75 o-rings though?  (min order) 
 
 

"Kawasaki Heavy Industries" just called me.  They want to know who's Bogarding all their 1300 carbs and want them back !
