BelairBolt,
My carbs are H/W's with electric chokes and the adapters are there. Camara angle doesn't show them well in that shot. All the stuff was from Langdon's. The combined height of the H/W's are lower than the Rot-chester's they replaced!
I would install the front clip and hood on the vehical before cutting anything! The bolt was the standard engine in 57 and it fit! Like camera angle, eyeball measuring can be decieving!
Measure once, Measure twice, Measure somemore, then cut!
