Okay, I'll take some pics but, according to another thread on here "Square bores have the same size throttle plates for primaries and secondaries. Spread bores have bigger throttle plates for the secondaries." the secondaries are the holes toward the rear of the carb on the bottom, right?
My holes on the rear are bigger.
Edit: Okay, I just ran out and snapped a couple quick pics. The pics are at this link. The two on the bottom are the pertinent pics. (IMG_1500.JPG and IMG_1502.JPG) They were both taken with the front of the car to the left of the frame.Last edited by MeeBit; 10-10-2006 at 05:11 AM.

Ok, so you are saying your gasket holes are smaller than the holes in the carb??

Sorry to confuse. The gasket has one big square open area in the center. Should I take a pic?
Edit: In my almost-drunken state, I just realizd the gasket and camera were within arm's reach so I snapped a quick picture. Hope that answers the question.
And thanks for putting up with me

You're right, I missed that. Why the heck did they put that gasket in the box?? Thanks for catching my error.
