The base gaskets are made of a material that has the ability to conform to minor irregularities in the sealing surfaces. Each mating surface of the carb, top, main body (top & bottom) is machined flat during production, thus negating the need for sealant on any gaskets associated with the carbs or their mounting surface. That's my story and I'm stick'n with it.
