I have an 87 lt250r. With the stock reed cage, intake, and carb.

What do you recommend to seal the intake and reed cage surfaces? I recently had my carb apart to clean and rejet. Now I have a bad air leak. The old gasket looked like hell.

Does a gasket go between the reed cage and cylinder or between I take and reed cage. Or both?

Also. Do they still make an "87 plate" so I could use a 6 bolt V Force on an 87 motor?
Thanks

Use a gasket between both the reed and cylinder and the reed and rubber manifold. We make a reed that uses the 12 petal V2 reed cage

Do you have any aftermarket reed reed/cages and gaskets for sale?

I was treated to a VForce 3 Reed from my wife.. Now.. I have everything cleaned up.. do i install the gaskets dry or put something like Permatex High Tack on both sides of gasket surfaces?
