carbs sweating at gasket joint Options

[JFG]

I was talking to someone at the weekend who advised it is likely to be the float height incorrect. Whilst i am in no under estimation of his knowledge i thought i would get some more input. No point opening them up twice.

Twin 40 weber idf. The motor ticks over very well when warmed up a bit and the short runs around the block (up to 2nd gear) runs nice. So no running issues so far.

The problem is at the gasket joibt in the carb itself, both of them sweat fuel from this point.

I've never had this before and my first thought was too much fuel pressure, i'm running a 3.5psi pump from cb performance but no regulator as yet.

I set the floats as per instructions i found so from here i'm not sure what to do.

These are my jet sizes etc
