Hi.
  Thanks for the replies.
   I have not tried an carb cleaner or starting fluid or anything like that
yet.  I thought I'd try to get a seal one more time.  The butterflies are
closed and the carbs are close to balanced. The intake flanges have been
machined flat however the gasket is probably a VB junk gasket. After
disassembly I see that the gaskets seal surfaces are not attached to the
head or the manifold from heat and crush like they normally are. Not hot
enough or not tight enough?
