p90 with carbs

I have a very similar project going. 1974 260, 3.1, with SU's. I am using a P79 head. I welded the injector "divots," in my head, but I agree, they probably do not hurt anything being there if you just use an intake/exhaust gasket for an earlier carbureted model from what I've read, and replies to a similar question I posted a couple of weeks ago.

NEW QUESTION:

Since I am running a P79 head, I have round intake, and exhaust ports. Does anyone know of a gasket with with round intake and exhaust, but without the injector holes in the top of the intake ports? Or do you just have to run a gasket with square exhaust ports?

Thanks in advance!

I'm actually running SU carbs on a P79 and using the fuel injected intake/exhaust (round/round) gasket. Just drill or punch out the extra couple holes to mount your carburetors and away you go. The injector holes are covered up completely either way.

Spent some time cleaning up my P79 head this weekend. Welded up the injector "divots," and did a little sanding/polishing/relieving around the valve seats, getting ready to take to machine shop for valve job, and mill all three surfaces. The pictures are not so good, took them with my phone.
