[T3] proper carb spacers?

[Sean Bartnik]

I’m sorry you’re having such trouble with vapor lock. I also run a dual carb setup with stock mechanical fuel pump and I’ve never had a vapor lock issue even in the worst of summer (95 degrees with 90% humidity). 

I looked at your pictures and they’re not quite clear (and I’m also used to seeing a single port manifold, not dual port), but it appears to me in your photos that you don’t have any phenolic spacers at all. 

I just see the carb body with the throttle plate section below it (removable on these carbs from the main body) and then the manifold. 

I see the gasket between the main carb body and the throttle valve section, but I see no spacer below that between carb and manifold.
