[QUOTE="WindNWing, post: 7680, member: 588"] If things work out there should be some pictures accompanying this post. My wife and I took a 170 mile ride to see the grandkids and I can say I was well satisfied with the carb/intake setup. The idle is at 1100 RPM and no blustering when I crack the throttle. Joedrum asked for the type of carburetor, the best I can say right now is just that it is a two barrel. It’s well hidden with the base plate just even with the bottom of the tank and from the top, all I can see is two barrels. If I ever get down to it, I’ll post later. On a closer look, it doesn’t seem that icing will be a problem, the intake is heated from the engin coolant. There didn’t seem to be any good way to get a picture of the intake. It is a one piece aluminum casting, inverted “T”. The cross section is about 2" high and slightly fan shaped from 4" out to 6" where the nipples accept the fittings going into the cylinders. The coolant comes in from both sides and exits from bottom center. There are petcocks on both sides at the top to bleed the air from the intake coolant. I just looked at the picture of the intake and I see I have some more cleaning to do..... I haven’t been able to find any information on the manifold, it is obviously a factory casting. If anyone recognizes it and has any information they could share, I would be grateful. [/QUOTE]
