It's a Carter AVS. Carb number or not, any AVS/late AFB gasket will work. A Holley base gasket should work too.

If I remember right (I'm old..lol) there were only two carbs that came on the earlier 340s. Carter AVS or AFB. I think that Edelbrock bought all the Carter stuff years ago and are producing the parts. Might contact them and see what they offer..if anything.

Also, the originals were an insulating black (if recall correctly) fiberboard type material about .25"
thick. Helped with vapor lock.
