>Gordon Wrote - Dan (Garrison) pointed out that the base of the Solex
manifold isn't exactly the same thickness as the SU manifold. On close
inspection I discovered that the Solex manifold was just enough thinner than
the tabs on the header that the thick washers were cocking sideways and not
applying full pressure to the intake manifold.
-------
That was my guess, although I had not made any measurements yet.

>Gordon continued - Another trick I've learned is to snug down the lower
nuts first in order to get a good tight fit on the lower part of the
manifold, then tighten down the upper nuts.
-------
I 'm going to try this as well
