Bike Carbs
I'm trying to fit some ZX6 F3 Carbs to a 1.8CVH, I have made the plate to bolt to the block but am unsure as how to proceed from here I was going to make angled spacers approx 30 degrees so the carbs floats sit level but still connect via the original manifold rubbers but this involves splitting then respacing the carbs this look like a lot of work. Has anyone got any pictures of other methods i.e welding tubes in at an agle and connecting with silicon hose's ?

Bike carbs
There is a very good and comprehensive article on fitting bike carbs in the NOV 2010 issue of CLASSIC FORD magazine. Try to get hold of a copy its brilliant
 They(Bogg Brothers in Chester) advise avoiding splitting them due to the linkage problems Bolt the manifold flange to a jig to avoid distortion and angle the tubes to the carbs using the shortest piece of silicone hose you can for stability.

Gus is currently making a manifold to use the same carbs as you on a 2 ltr black top zetec. I have also done a similar setup on a cvh using the original bike carb rubber mountings, and without respacing the carbs.
Basically we have got a plate to suit the head, and a plate to suit the carbs. Pipes then run between the two plates with them welded & internally ground as needed to match the ports.    Hope the above helps

Brilliant this is realy helpful think I will try someting simular to you as it will save splittiing the carbs which none seems to recommend one final thing any ideas where I can get a manual for these carbs or just an explanation of what all the hoses do and if they are even needed, I read somewhere one of the feeds is for coolant I wouldn't think I need this one

Having seen the carbs Gus is using I wouldn't say any of them were for coolant, but I may be wrong. What ignition system are you planning on using?
