Good call. There's an MSC nearby in Pompano Beach.

I've been thinking about a thread repair kit. Amazon?

Good info, Howard. Mine's a "CE."

Well, after trying many gaskets and o-rings, and after speaking with Mike at Mike's Carburetors, I thought I had the fix to my leaky plug on top of the carb. He suggested that I file the mating surface on the carb and the brass plug, which I did, and this led me to the discovery that the plug was cross-threaded. I don't remember doing it- but I could have. Looks like a 5/8"-20 thread, but I don't think I can fix it.

Anyone have a spare carb top for a "48 Super Eight Carter carb?

I have a vinyl sign plotter and I created a file to cut them out of the reflective material.

That looks like a very good option. The CHMSL (center high mounted stop light) is essential these days- I am so conditioned by it that if I'm behind a vehicle without one, I will catch myself not noticing regular brake lights. BTW, my 22nd series has separate stop and turn signals too. Thanks for the info!

Ask a man who's freezing his tail off.

Thanks, Rusty! Sounds like good advice.
