914World.com _ 914World Garage _ dual carb gaskets and torque settings

Posted by: nditiz1 Sep 25 2017, 06:16 AM

I am reading conflicting information. Are you dual carb guys running the phenolic block gasket or the thinner fiber gasket on your intake manifold to head?

Also what are the torque settings for manifolds to head and carbs to manifolds?

Thanks, trying to clean up some intake leaks with proper sealing.

Phenolic blocks help reduce heat transfer and fuel boiling in the float bowl.

I've never been good at remembering torque specs so I always double check specs, which in this case would be intake manifold to head, but IIRC 8-12 ft lbs
