Currently fitting carbs to a CVH engine for IVA/current cost purpose. So was wondering how easy it would be to modify the standard manifold to fit bike carbs. After a bit of cutting I think a small adaptor welded on to each branch to allow carb rubber fitting is much easier than starting from scratch. In the pics below I've just slipped rubbers on to see how close they are in alignment and I'm surprised!! there really isn't a whole lot of fettling to be done. So anyone got a bit of thick wall 45MM ali tube going spare to make the adaptors?
