Here is the story as told to me by deep throat in Precision.  There is a 
Marvel carb certified for use on the C85.  I recall it is the PN 4240 
referred to in another e-mail.  Marvel made one production run, and as far
as 
they know, the only one left is the one on their flow bench.  Anyhow,
they're 
as rare as hen's teeth.

David Lowe, of the International Cessna 120/140 Association, went through
the 
process of obtaining an STC to modify other Marvel carbs for use on the
C85.  
Precision will not supply the necessary parts unless you have the STC.  At
this time there is no other legal way to convert a Marvel carb for a C85.
STC Number SE01309AT

Obtaining a Marvel Carb, the STC, and the necessary parts will set the 
average Joe back $800 - $1000.   Anyone skilled in the art of the
Stromberg 
can make one work just fine for a lot less.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
