    Looks Good Xboxrox. If it helps you psychologically, those brass fittings will have been epoxied in as well unless they were placed in the mould the resin was poured in. Don't worry be happy

    There are 3 holes involved in the repair glue joint 1) the corner screw hole for accel pmp attachment 2) hole for fuel passage into the bottom of the large brass fitting 3) a factory epoxy filled hole

    Hole #2 will need excess epoxy removed by drilling it out
    Hole #3 new epoxy penetrated a depth of 1/4" and it provides strength like a pin

    Am hoping the carb still on the truck is same as the original but if not then I just might have to try using the pricy 600°F expoxy in a "U" shaped groove all around the joint...

    Hoping to recv hose pinch clamp set within 5 more days -- then I can begin removing the problem carby...
