Those gaskets have gotten really tough to find; they were used only for 3 years ('70, '71, '72) and have been N/A for quite some time. I'm working on getting them reproduced by the same folks who did the good gaskets for the manifolds-to-head and intake-to-exhaust junctions. How quickly do you need one?

Hi, I can use it as soon as possible but whenever will do, I keep resealing it with hi temp. silicone but only lasts days. I'm going to try exhaust sealant now.. thanks Brian

Better and more durable: Get some high-temperature gasket material (NAPA JV-128, which is a 12" x 24" sheet that'll cost about $11), remove the cup, and turn it upside down to use as a pattern. Use a very sharp knife such as a new X-Acto. Spray it with Copper-Cote before installation, maybe use a stack of two of them, and this should hold up until the good graphite-composite gaskets are ready.

Depending on how well your choke is working, you may also want to pick up a #1231 electric choke kit.

I've run into this problem also. clean all surfaces really good get some permatex ultra copper silicon and smother it on all the surfaces. bolt down, let dry completely. I did this and have had no problems for at least 3-4 months.
