The 80?

You can get away with not adding any if you skimp on your port matching like I did (Metra 80 for me) but it's not a good idea; I like bad ideas.

Jb weld

yeah jb weld works, as long as it's only used to create a seal for your base gasket. here's a picture of peter's hobbit. he did the same thing.

if you want to do it right i'm sure you could get nate or nichols to weld some aluminum to your cases for some beer/bourbon.

thanks dudes. i'm gettin' excited now!

24 mikuni flatside and i'd like to fab an ultra custom pipe. something real gnarly looking.

flatslide.

do alot of folks run metra 80 heads on their gilas?

is there any advantage to the metra head over the gila head? squish band?

i havent seen either but i have a gila comming in the mail.

thanks derek. anyone have experience with this?

i havent seen any pics of this mounted up.

Those intakes work well; I recommend getting/making a spacer so you can run it out to the left. Using it to the right gets in the way of the pedal and without a spacer if you want run it to the left it hits the head/fins (you could cut the fins but I prefer a spacer). MikeT (tom cruiser) makes some nice 1/2" spacers; I'm running 2 1/4" ones (one on each side of the reed block).

Seth, I used that intake on my Gila recently. I also used the riser block that Mike T. was selling so that I didn't have to cut the fins. It points the carb at 8 o'clock (the spark plug is 12). I have pics. gimme a sec.

that'll work

glad someone said it

How does the Gila perform with and w/o opening the transfers?

to avoid having to add material to the case for larger transfers.
