79 Mustang lean as a bean

I threw on some Mr. Gasket carb gaskets, those things are probably 5x thicker. Couldn't get the engine below 1500rpm without stalling. Toss on my paper thin Holley gaskets and the sucker idles at 650 with no problem. Spraying around with starting fluid, no leaks on the Holley gaskets. Weirdest thing because I figured the Holley gaskets were junk compared to Mr. Gasket stuff.

Side note, I can't get below an 18in-mg. I still feel like I have a small intake leak but I can't find the damn thing, I'll look at it again later.

Any idea who makes Mr Gasket brand or vice versa

I know

But i'm not telling Kook

I be speechless if you didn't

Looks like this.

Seals much easier against the 1 inch spacer than the intake manifold does and stops that annoying vacuum leak

Maybe I should just cut the doghouse and throw on a 6-71 with a bird catcher.
