I see that my carbs are mounted to the manifold with only paper thin gaskets. Would a spacer or other gasket combo reduce heat to the carbs further reducing my vaporization problem. I notice that raising the carbs will cause air cleaner clearance problems. My hood has the full frame, with insulation. The insulation retaining clip is hitting the left front corner of the left air cleaner. Looks like I'll be cutting the hood frame. I'm open to remarks from anyone who's been this route.
