This falls into both the DIY/welding, and carburated forums, but you guys seem to be more receptive to the $350 price limit How about this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...tem=7951883048&category=43946&sspagename=WDVW With a section of pipe welded to it and the choke horn cut down flat? Mayby a 90* mandrel down into the top? Could even do two for twins so there would be no Y. It won't be as nice as the other ones, probably not as much power either, but it sure is cheap. I sent him an email getting some specs on it. Do you guys think it will work? What do you guys do to keep the wing nut from leaking? Thanks

I made a bonnet out of fiberlass, I'll take some pics if you would like to see it.

It cost me about $20 to make, and about 4-5 hours of time.

 

I'm guessing it might be a little flimsy since it is only for storage purposes. This might be a good thing though http://www.quickcar.net/carb_comp/sureseal.html . I have not decided if I want to build (satisfaction) or buy yet.

 

do you have any pics of how you made the fiberglass one? The finish product would also be cool. If you don't want to post them my email is

How does it work for you? Couldn't it melt or get scewed up with fuel fumes? Brian, they have another carb hat that says it is made of really thick material and won't bend. http://www.quickcar.net/carb_comp/tl_alcrbht.html
Hrmm, mayby I'll make one of carbon fiber, that would look really trick
