Close. You just need at least a /29 on the WAN side so you have enough
IPs for CARP - one for each box and the shared IP. The other subnet is
routed to the shared CARP IP.

On the internal side, one IP out of your block is for CARP on your
LAN/OPT interface, and again one for each box. Items in the internal
side use the shared CARP IP as their gateway.
