Seeking a Harken 140 Lead Block with Cam Cleat

On my 2007 Hunter 41AC, there is a Harken #140 lead block with cam cleat on either side of the arch for securing the traveler lines. These have 40mm blocks. I want to add another of these on the arch frame for the furler line. Harken no longer makes this lead block with a stainless frame. Rather, they now make the Carb-Cam series and the 40mm block version (#2156) seems to have the same working load specs as the stainless frame design. However, I would prefer to install the stainless frame version, if I can find one, just because it will look better near the original ones.

I checked the consignment rooms at the local chandlery and didn't find one. I've also searched eBay, FaceBook Marketplace and CraigsList with no luck. If anyone knows where I might purchase a Harken #140, used or new old stock, I'd like to hear of it.

The first photo is of the Harken 140 on my boat and the second is the Harken 2156.

Presuming you don’t have any luck, I know Harken will custom make one for you in SS. It won’t be cheap but it all depends on how badly you want matched set.
