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.![]()

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.
