The IH kits have indeed gone through the roof on price. But if your carb is bad enough to need many parts replaced, then you may be better off with the pricey IH version as it will have everything you need. If, however, you need to replace just the basic parts - needle valve and seat, throttle shaft packing and adjustment screws, then an after market kit should be OK. I"ve used the parts offered on this site with good results on several of my tractors.
As to the brass vs. plastic issue, I"m on the other side of the fence - I like the plastic end(actually it looks more like teflon to me but I can"t say for sure). I"ve rebuilt four carb linkages for H"s and M"s and in three cases, the key on the linkage rod from the governor that fits into the plastic or brass end of the carb throttle shaft was badly worn. If the two parts do not fit tightly, the governor pick-up response is slow (you may even think you have a governor problem). Replacement linkage rods are available but cost $75. I know that brass should give it up before the steel linkage rod, but I can"t help but believe that the softer material may be better on the more expensive linkage in the long haul.

That was 10 years before I was born, so I grew up thinking that 8N was the world's best tractor. Grandpa had greenhouses, with over half an acre under glass, and that 8N did almost everything. It was the only
