I need someone to fabricate the open box to enclose the carby to the bonnet. So I can cut the hole in the bonnet for my air filter to poke through under the bonnet scoop.

Does anyone have any plans, suggestions, and or recommend someone to make it ??

But it will depend on what engine mounts , manifold and carb your running as heights will vary

There is a thread about this and the different styles available. I was going to make one and see how it easy it would be to reproduce.

I purchased the alloy and the rubber stripping but too many other jobs have come up and my air cleaner is still doesn't have a box around it. Ill get there one day.

Have a search, the thread will be around.

Cheers

Evan.
