Rebuilding an 821 is EMOTIONAL
Gmg31:
Looks like that car has a Weber and 4 branch tubular exhaust. They really get in the way of the coolant pipe exiting the swirl pot. I've had loads of problems with mine because of that, it backs up and overflows and its a struggle to bleed. I think it might also add heat to your carb which risks warming up the fuel. I recommend re routing that pipe below the carb. Its not easy but I noticed an immediate difference when I moved mine.

I noticed you said gaskets several times with different vendors

Usually liner seals are not included in an engine gasket set. Someone is sealing them old ebay out of Australia and Meca Parts carries them as well.
dakazman:
Your the answer man JB
Thanks again

Dakazman, the pistons and liners did come with a set of liner seals. When I bought lower gasket set it also came with liner seals.
This is what they look like...
