On the second set of carbs I made set out of soft aluminum tubing, squeezed the end of the tube in a vise to get an oval shape, tapered the edges and hammered it in until it bottomed out, then used a small drill bit and small pop rivet. Bent the tube up slightly so it doesn't interfere with the float. These are longer and work better than the plastic.
