Someone want to do some fabrication work for me?

[strap-on]

basically I need a pair adaptors made up to fit a filter to the mouth of my carbourators, I have a little spacer off the top that can be used as a template for the flange and then it will just need a tube on the top that once I work out how long it needs to be will double as a trumpet,

so yeah anyone wanna do the work? I know theres people on here like action dan who can do awesome work just not quite sure if this is his cup of tea.

are these going to be turmpets for your dual carb? i am/was looking at getting trumpets and putting sock filters on but theres sfa room there haha, ill be keen as a bean aswel

[strap-on]

yeah this is cos i cant fit a K&N on as is, there ends up being about 30 mm room i think

so r u going to just run a trumpet set up and put sock filters over the trumpets? thats what im planning to do hoepfuly

Im not sure now lol i just rememberd how small the gap is it may be i will have to get something tricky done once ig et the right length worked out.

yeh i guess you could take the air filter box off, bolt some trumpets on and then raise the bonnet a bit to get a bit of air goin to them haha, it is a very very tight space. Theres some 75mm ones on tardme but i dunno if there is even that much room haha

Do you not have access to a lathe on base? Surely it wouldnt be too hard to spin up a set of tubes, then get someone to weld them onto a flange.

Hmm that is true then i can get what i want and maybe make some for rolla 86 as well

hey just thought i would warn ya that the length of the trumpet and the trumpet design makes a huge difference, you could just weld on a piece of pipe.. or your could do it properly and reap the rewards

[strap-on]

yeah hance why im trying to figure out how long they need to be i really just need an adaptor, but im reading an article that redmist posted ages ago that explains it all quite nicely so pnce ive finished readin i should be able to wrok out what i wanna do

[86_rolla]

any news, im keen on some

Hah! a carb Honda thread, lol! How does the carb setup work with the EF? Is the carb downdraft? I have a DA with dual carb, I want a decent filter (not for performance obviously, maybe a bit more "roar"!) but my carbs are sidies.. ie the filter is pointing at the firewall, and I have about 60mm to work with!

[86_rolla]

yeh the EF's are the same (sidedraft), theres not much room but it can be done,



just need to chuck some sock filters on and she will b a minta lol
