Hi.
  Thanks for the replies.
   I have not tried an carb cleaner or starting fluid or anything like that
yet.  I thought I'd try to get a seal one more time.  The butterflies are
closed and the carbs are close to balanced. The intake flanges have been
machined flat however the gasket is probably a VB junk gasket. After
disassembly I see that the gaskets seal surfaces are not attached to the
head or the manifold from heat and crush like they normally are. Not hot
enough or not tight enough?
                     Pat
