Carb Hat

Can I Get Some Pics Of Some. Mainly Sidedraft Carb Style But Nikki To. Also Who Made It Or Where You Got It. I Know Robert Does It But He Really Seams To Get Backed Up.

if you can get the specs for a machine shop, i dont see it being too expensive to get one made. that way you can have it made to your specifications.

I have one of Roberts. I will try to take some pics of it for you. I actually might be selling it if I sell the carbs to a friend of mine.

all you would need to do it make up a sketch of what you want. any reputable shop should be able to do it with just measurements. you might could draw it on autoCAD and give i to them.

you may want to hole off though, IIRC. a carb hat used in NA form is more restrictive than helpful.

the best intake you can do, IMO, for NA is either a RB of modded stock filter assembly for a nikki. anything that allows it to breath air from all sides.

wow. i would not be running it without a filter unless for special occassions.

look into one of the respeed radiator supports made for a CAI. use it, run a 3" huse to in front of the car, then run it to the carb hat.
