Hello! I've read a lot of great info here but haven't found the answer to an issue I just had an hour ago. I bought a weber carb kit and it came with an adapter plate. It looks different than the ones I've seen posted here and on YouTube, where mine only has 2 hex bolts that mount it to the original threads in the intake manifold. 2 of the studs thread into the adapter only (the side closer to the valve cover), and 2 go through the adapter and into the intake manifolds original threaded locations. These two are closer to each other than the others, and do not line up with the holes on the weber. I can't flip/rotate anything to make it work any other way. it is like this adapter does not match the weber, but does fit on my manifold... I'm lost on what to do now. I've contacted the person I purchased it from and hope to hear back but he has never seen this before.
Here are 3 photos that hopefully show what I'm trying to explain. note: the third photo shows the throttle cable bracket (yes, I know it goes above the carb, but it goes on the same studs so I wanted to show that it too has wider spacing than the adapter plate). Thanks!
