Greetings . . .

Google has a book about Rochester Carburetors online:
Google Books: Rochester Carburetors by Doug Roe
pages 116 and 117 show how to decode jet part numbers. I believe that the 'B' series and '2G' series use the same 'approach angle' so the jets should be interchangeable.

Charlie Price has got 2g jets:

Anytime a Rochester B is running rich, be sure to check for the infamous warpage which holds the power valve open BEFORE installing smaller jets.

Good carburetion is fuelish hot air
The most expensive carburetor you will ever buy, is the incorrect one you attempt to modify!!!

Buy a 1/4 x 32 bottoming tap and retap the 2G series bodies so you can use Holley jets. Holley jets are available everywhere. Works well.
