New Holley carb, gas leak at fuel inlet

[Jhawk73]

I just did the same thing. I tried the one that you have on now and it would not stop leaking. I ordered the Holley dual line and it looked like The one that is on the left. I had to bend it a little but it sealed on the carb bowls with no Teflon tape. I had to put tape on the gauge hole and on the end to get it finally leak free.

Oh cool thanks man! Have you had a chance to drive it yet? It's my first Holley and first mechanical secondary carb. I took off an Edelbrock 650 AVS so I'm pretty excited.

One more thing, where did you hook your transmission vac line and PCV? On my Edelbrock I had the PCV in the front big port, and the trans vac in the back of the Edelbrock Intake, but the Holley hangs over that port now so I ran a T for the trans and PCV to hook into the back of the carb. Is that gonna work you think?
