LD340 Can’t Get The Carb Base To Seal

I tried that approach in the past where you sandwich thin aluminum plates with thin gaskets...

I ended up cracking one of the bolt holes off the base.... Too much play when you stack them and it allows the base to deform until it breaks....

That's about what I've found as well, really easy to break a corner off your carb ! Only ever use bakerlite like spacers now.
