    67 s/b carb base gasket

    Hi all,

    I am (finally!) getting ready to install the carb on my 67 327/350. I have a gasket I got from Long Island Corvette and a kit that I got from the rebuilder (Jerry Luck). The "kit" from Mr. Luck has a thin metal plate, a green gasket with two holes and an oblong hole, and a black gasket with 4 holes and long slot (I assume for a heat riser?) The one from long island is green and has 4 holes that are all the same size-- looks very generic, and is thicker than the other gaskets.

    I am thinking that I should just use the green gasket supplied by the rebuilder (two circular holes and an oval hole) but I wanted to check and make sure.

    Is it recommended to use any sealer or just put the gasket on a clean surface?

    Thanks as always!
    Brandon

    The gasket with the 2 round holes and one oblong hole is the correct one for your application, although I can't tell you that it's correct in every other nuance of detail.

    The stainless steel baffle is not used for your application as there was no "carb heat groove" used for L-79. Base engine cars would have used it, though.

      Thx Joe. I figured as much, but it's great to get confirmation before having to undo ANOTHER part that I assembled "almost right." I'm also not really surprised that the LICS part is totally wrong...

      OK, I'm off to install me a carb!
