Re: carb gaskets
Actually, neither one of them looks right for use on the bottom with the spacer.
"A" will probably leak.
"B" has a lot of extra cut-outs.
"B" without cut-outs should be correct.
"A" looks correct for carb-to-spacer (right under the carb, on top of the spacer).

Why is it that there's seldom time to fix it right the first time, but there's always time to fix it right the second time???
That's not an oil leak
That's SWEAT from all that HORSEPOWER!!

Re: carb gaskets
just took one apart that I believe had never been touched.
Spacer to manifold the small hole is on the left side of the engine, although I don't think it would make a difference.
Spacer to carb has two gaskets (one of each) that seemed to be glued together.
The one that's the same as the spacer to intake is against the spacer with the small hole toward the right side then the other gasket on top.
