Did you make sure to use special silicone sleeves to connect your carbs to the manifold? They look to be the same kind as the hose you use for water to me. If it is so, they will not resist the fuel vapors. You need special silicone hoses, fuel resistant, which have a spacial inside layer (fluorine kind of component if I remember correctly).
Its different stuff, made for fuel cheers.

One thing I noticed is your single fixing for your roll bar stays. This was a iva fail early on for AshG so you may want to consider changing that.

Also the rear brake lines are fowling the chassis, I don't know if that has been sorted since this pic.
Hopefully the brake lines just need tweaking round a bit when its sat on its wheels.
Any ideas for how to do the roll bar stays didn't realise they had to have more than one fixing we just followed the book
