Default 3W 55i Velocity stack installation help

Hi, I need help installing the velocity stack/adapter for the 3W 55 engine. I bought the velocity stack from 3W, it looks like an L shaped cone and it comes with a tygon line and a short brass tube... I think the tygon line connects between the carb and the stack, what about the brass tube? Anyone got pictures? Do I have to use a gasket between the carb and the stack?
Thanks!
Tony

No gasket needed. The tygon line can either run from the snorkle (velocity stack) to the carb diaphram cover by soldering the brass tube over the hole on the cover, or run a long piece of fuel tubing back inside the fuselage in a "dead air" space instead.
