Here are some installed pictures, I put a piece of safety wire around the rear of the carb and wrapped it around the frame, it is not real tight and only acts as a strain relief item to ensure the new manifold does not try to pull boot off air box, after 10-15 hrs of engine run time the manifold should be trained enough from the heat cycles the wire can be removed. Tight fit once everything is installed. Boot went on air box just fine. I put a piece of 1/4" gas line between the wire and frame so the rubber tubing sets the tension of the safety wire. More later once I have tested the new manifold.10-28-02
Update 3-14-03 Manifold tested, no jetting changes were required and no seat of the pants power gains were noted, a slight increase in throttle response was noted, the best part about this manifold will be I can now try more suffer modifications like in the picture below. Without the sides of the reed cage. Cad to reality :-) Lets talk alternative parts go to this page and look at part numbers 5 and 9 then look at the reed patals part number 6 14111-KZ3-B11 REED VALVE $5.48 replacement reed petals (you need to order two of them) Look at the bat wings on that intake manifold #9 too bad it was not straight.
