The last gasket set I bought, these did not come with it. I have torn T-3 engines down, that had the T-1 metal duel port gasket in their place. This does not work very well. It is possible that you have a vacuum leak between the intake runners and the head. While the engine is running at idle, spray something like WD-40 around the intake. (do not use anything that is too flammable). If the engine smooths out momentarily, you have this problem.
