1972 Bendix metering valve rebuild

I have been searching for information on rebuilding my 1972 Bendix brake system metering valve with no luck so far. I did search our site here for previous threads and have searched online deeper. Does anyone have information on a rebuild kit or rebuilding services offered. I am doing a frame off on my 72 Supreme and figured I've gone this NUTS already, I may as well rebuild this as well.

Thanks,
Dave

Got mine rebuilt @ Karp's Brake Service. They said they PC'ed it, but it started rusting after about a year. Seems like it was lightly 'painted'.

Do you remember what they all did and cost? Thats the same unit I need done for sure but I as you would rather it be powder coated.

So what you're saying is now it looks more like a typical GM part.
