    Gaskets showed up today...After installing them the issue persists from the same booster...I have other carbs but they are 720 miles from here...It's very frustrating sometimes not to be able to touch your stuff...Everything looks to be in order on this thing but it's not working...I'm thinking abut reversing the metering rods to see if the problem will move to the other side....
    I remember when hot rods were all home made.
