R2 Carter 3507S Thick Insulator Spacer

[Leo B]

I bought used Carter 3507S and ordered Repair Kit from SI.
Do I need also thick Insulator Spacer. I think so. Where to find correct one? Something else also? Special Seals between manifold and Carburetor.
Edit: I noticed that there are 5 seals in the repair kit. Is the meaning that I should use all of them between Carb and manifold. Will they work as a seal + insulator? And thats all I need?

Yes, you can 'stack' those gaskets..They will work just as well as the factory 1/4" thick carb-to- manifold gasket!

I only see 4. There should be a stack of three. 4 might be too soft, and risk damaging the fragile corners of the carb when tightened down.

Yes, three of the thin gaskets shown in the photo would be equivalent to the one factory 'thick' carb mounting gasket.
