4 stores, zero gaskets! Can't order the gasket that goes between the air cleaner and the carb. Even NAPA! |

If all you need is the gasket for between the carb and air cleaner, I would use a heavy, thick gauge paper. I use "blotters" at work on grind wheels and happened across some w/ the right Inner Dia. I just trimmed the Outside Dia. to fit, for the side screw clamp style air filter on the old stromberg 2 bbls. This style needs them. They are just thick paper, kinda like the thin paper boxes for a deck of cards, not so much like weak construction paper though. I don't know what you running, but I don't use one at all on my 77 1bbl holley with a stock air cleaner unit. |

I've used a gasket from a used oil filter before. A little loose and dosn't last that long, but works in a pinch. |
