Does Summit sell a stack of those top plate gaskets in one package? Seems to me that when I had one of the "other" versions of that "new" carb, they were a royal PITA to keep around.

Or do I have this Summit carb confused with another that seals like an Autolite?w00t

Building another set-up, I think I'd be prone to try one of the 600cfm "Slayer" carbs...

I think the Summit carb is a copy of a Holley. I'm not sure of the model number but there was a Holley that was similar looking to the Autolite.

Here are some photos of the Summit carb sitting on the Tbird Mummert intake. I was taking measurements and trying see if I have enough hood clearance. The adjustment nuts for the float levels has me thinking about air cleaner fit. Nice carb. I like the new idle circuit adjustment locations and the fuel level sight glasses which are big enough to see easily.
