Most of my work is done with a hammer and chissle, drill & rotary bits, and bench grinder/ disk grinder. Although this time i had to also break out the bastard file.

Your carb ....

Looks freaking AWESOME!

I love the powdercoated silver and the gunmetal (or unpainted aluminum?) look. I remember the black and green one you had posted in anther thread and thought that was pretty far out... This one is more subtle but it POPS out at you. Love the powdercoat that KC did.

Its chrome and gunmetal. Next time i would switch where i put the two. Whats chrome would be gunm and whats gunm would be chrome. Im very pleased with it. Cant wait to try it. When i took apart my last carb i found out the ao shot plunger got crooked and stuck from the gasket mod. 2 gaskets on both sides were to many. But i could not get it to idle low for nothing but it ran great. This carb i wanted it to look sleek and sick.

So once again i have a carb problem. 1 primary will not squirt fuel so ill have to see if something is blocking a jet. Otherwise with a modded intake i can still get fuel to both rotors and i can tell it will be a beast. And this different carb gasket kit was way better than the one from autozone everyone said you had to get. No leaks and no fittment problems at half the cost. Carshow is on the 24 so i have a busy road ahead of me.
