Are the rubbers still available that screw onto the heads and clamp onto the carbs?

Thanks Rage!

I guess I'll spray 'em down with carb cleaner and then seal 'em up with silicone.

Silicone rubber sealants can't be used on intake manifolds because gasoline dissolves it.

Thanks Ed!

The Motorcycle Parts Outlet ( 479-756-1919 ) had NOS carb holders for $23.00 each. I put them on and my intake leaks are gone.

Thanks for the tip!
