Re: Modified Zenith Carburetor
JoeWay: Thanks for the link. I knew the A manifold could be opened up for the B carb and that the attaching needed to rotate a bit. Is the "new" carbs venturi area going to be as big as a B or larger??

This project is something that I have been comptemplating for several years now as I would like to install the proper looking manifold and carburetor. Joe, to answer your question about using a good running carburetor, while that is a possibility, remember that the bowl will need to have machine work, and the jets will need to be re-flowed because with more air comes the need for additional fuel. The only thing that I tend to think would be different than Mike's S&S carb that he installed on his Harley is that with a modified 'A' carb, we would still be able to use the GAV to lean out the fuel mixture to increase the fuel mileage. Granted horsepower will suffer with less fuel but it does kinda allow one to have their cake and get to eat it too. |

Re: Modified Zenith Carburetor
Paul, at this point, we're thinking same size as the B. There's a limit to how much metal can be removed safely and until we get further into the project we don't know what the final dimension will be.
