The soft mounts I used are large rubber O-ring molded around an inner
aluminum core. They are made for Webers and come molded together as 2 O-ring
spaced to fit the Weber DCOE body. 45's work for 3/4" Su's, merely cut them
apart and open up the stud hole slightly. There are 2 types of mounting. One
is a rubber hourglass shaped foam piece that is contained within 2 cupped
washers and the other is Thackeray (sp?) washers. Either setup will work.
On the HS style carbs, I also insert a foam piece between the float and the
carb body. On the H style carbs use the softer type rubber washers for the
float mount (some kits supply plastic style washers).
I have purchased the soft mounts from Pierce Manifolds, 321 Kishimura
