One adapter plate is necessary to mount the spread bore carb in the picture to the square bore manifold. The other plate is actually not necessary. With some carbs a spacer might be necessary for clearance depending on a particular carb's linkage. I have another carb I am setting up (a 465 cfm Holley) to mount and I think it will have the clearance necessary to install it directly to the manifold.

I think the two holes fmc400 is using to mount his bracket are part of the mount for the stock exhaust manifold to the Offy intake that are also used to mount the plate for the water heat.
