I'm looking for a way to get the heat to the carbs without cobbling up something ugly and rigging it to my Fenton's.....functionality is primary but the look is a large part of my goal.

It was a small tin unit and came with a length of aluminum tubing and woven a heat shield sleeve. It attached to the header with a band clamp. Mounted on the back side it didn't look too bad. It may be worth looking into, if they still make it. | | |
