thanks for the link, my base gasket looks identical to #2, my gasket kit was a NOS kit from ABLINN, I made sure it did not block anything on the bottom of the carb before installing it.
Yes, thank you, I posted in post 6 that I have been looking for a vacuum leak but cannot find one, where else could I possibly check, the carb is making a loud hissing noise, the wiper motors are disconnected at the fuel pump and it is blocked off there, so no vacuum leak at the pump, unless...
Yeah, idk why but I just feel like it's vacuum related a little, I disconnected the wiper vacuum from the fuel pump today and plugged it at the pump since both wipers were leaking and it ran without the choke but only if I kept my foot on the gas, after it warmed up it seemed like I had to...

I have been tinkering with the m37, trying to get it running again, about a week ago, I was finally able to get it fired up for the first time, the coil was bad, the primary resistance was spot on but the secondary was non existent, it ran and it sounded pretty good, but it was still flooding...
