    Nice van! Modified stock manifold would fit the weber in there. Or modify the clifford like someone recently scratched their head about. Or modify the box...

    Wink

    How about cutting the Clifford manifold down to a 2 barrel on the outside and welding a plate to close it back up. Then cutting or milling the carb flange off and weld an aluminum Weber flange on the top.

    Matt says its kinda hot and noisy driving the van without that side cover on,,,,,,,,and it dont fit anymore,,,,,,I cut a 14" high piece of an old hot water heater shell and bent some flanges on it,,,,,,so I will drop it off at Matts next week and lets see if he can make something out of it,,,,,,

    Looks pretty close!!! Nice teamwork on that one! Will adjustments need to be made to the seat bracket or Will it still clear the new side panel?
