Needed to adjust 2ndary float level on my 4160 4bbl. Gasket is shot and now i'm in a pinch. I ordered bowl gaskets not realizing that the 2ndary gasket is different than the primary. 2ndary gasket goes under what I would call the vac plate. How do I remove this plate without trashing the carb setup. And also what is this gasket called so I know how to order it??

Re: Holley carb

lots of times the local auto parts chains carry the rebuild kits and main gaskets for 4150 and 4160 carbs...
