Im installing a new carb, 650 dp dual feed, and the alternator is right in the way. Any suggestions?

 

Switch the bowls!

 

Hahaha that's the only thing i could think of.

 

Or side mount the alt...

 

How would i go about doing that? And i got her on and she was idling horribly. I put my hands over the to of the carburetor and rather than choking out, it idled the way its supposed to. I found the throttle shaft to be sucking in a good amount of air. I did some research and some people were saying it always will suck air but that sounds stupid. Its supposed to be an air right unit do you idle at the highest vacuum, right?

 

I used a cannibalized AC bracket, but there have been several manufacturers that made kits over the years.
