The idle circuit drillings are is different places; either gasket would be the wrong gasket for one or the other.

Sorry about that mis-read your post, I thought you where having problems with the 750 and wanted to put a 950 base plate, not that you already had. Never done that swap sorry can't help you there but I know the Holley Competition 6109 and 8156 750's I believe use different base plates then 4779 750's so it may be the same deal and have something to do with the 4 corner idle circuits.

I would open the idle screws 3 or more turns and see if it helps.
