Re: The Official John Lee Jr Thread

The transdapt gasket between the carb and adapter has slots...with the weber base, huge vacuum leaks are pending...time to cut one from my Felpro stock.



After cutting the outside shape, press hard so the carb holes marke the gasket, outline em and cut em out a bit small to fit snug on the bolts. I use curved toenail scissors, they do the job pretty slick on tight curves. A drill press would do it too.



Adapter mounted to carb and tracing out the hole for both barrels.



Now thats a gasket I can live with, no vacuum leaks.



A couple traced out, I'll cut em later and put them in the road kit under the seat.



Its easier to bring the carb and base together off the manifold...new gasket is sammiched in there too.



From the top, linkage reattached, carb bolted to manifold...I'll tune the linkage later.



View from the drivers side.
