You shouldn't need any holes anywhere in the air cleaner. You can also remove the flapper in the snout. I have patched several of these air cleaners in the past, and really found it easier to just buy the new air cleaner from Racing Beat. It fits the Nikki perfectly, has no holes in it, looks better, probably flows more, looks nicer, and is only $70. But if you are tight on cash, just plug up the holes in the air cleaner any way you can.

Yeah, I can take pictures for you tonight when I get home. I ended up leaving that butterfly in, as it is for the choke. You can remove it if you want to. Even if you do remove that butterfly, most people still recommend leaving the fast idle linkage connected. Doing this should help with cold starts even if you don't have the choke butterfly anymore. If you take it out you would probably have to plug the holes where the shaft goes.

You really will want to run vac advance. It makes a noticable difference in drivability and power response. Use the nipple farthest forward on the base of the carb. You'll get better economy with it as well...
