Default Holley 4 barrel gaskets

So i have a list around here somewhere,
things i never did, things that didn't need doing, and things i probaly shouldn't have gotten myself into.

added to to all 3 today, took the carb off and took the carb apart.
probably didn't need to, it was clean inside except the lower bowel ( inboard engine at 12* angle) had just a touch of crud on the bottom.
damn thing probably woulda coughed up a lung for a couple tanks then worked it self out.

The metal parts are chem dippin right now, all the electric engine components and harnesses are shipped, now i got myself into it.
at the top of the picture next to the electric choke, that (vac 2ndary), the accelerator pump and the choke did not go into the dip, just the bowels, nuts, studs, the spacer and carb body will have to be done seperate and no jets or screws were removed or turned.

Thanks guys, Where can i get gaskets ?

AED is great but personally I would buy an entire Holley rebuild kit from somebody like Summit.

switch it to eldebrock 1409 or 1410 they definitely run better in an inboard set up and have way better idle circuits

Is this a serious post or are you just messing around? A $10 gasket kit or a new $500 carb?

I had dual double pumper carbs on a T-bucket I built and they were a pain. They'd always leak where the fuel tube is inserted between both bowls. Replaced them withremanufactured dual Carter carbs and all the problems went away...including the difficulty with cleaning them and finding gaskets.
