#237285 Makcap (User) How boring it would be if we were all the same Platinum Boarder Posts: 1736 Re:anybody ever blow the carb off the manifold. 2 Years, 6 Months ago   Curt that won't work the relief is way to short. I know ms1700 had a setup run for awhile but the hose and stock manifold didn't pass the test of time.   Logged     RIDE DS:219 MASSILLON OHIO   The administrator has disabled public write access. #237287 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride!

The Ben Herr sealed the intake to spigot is poor I have a 42 carb and had to make a spacer to hold in the 42. Believe it or not the 42 and 45 spigot is smaller than the 40 go figure.   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/11/12 22:04 By Makcap.   RIDE DS:219 MASSILLON OHIO   The administrator has disabled public write access. #237295 Road_Hawg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1397 Re:anybody ever blow the carb off the manifold. 2 Years, 6 Months ago   I blew the carb off of my ole Shovelhead once. Only time it ever happened in my 40+ years of riding.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #237319 MS1700 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2585 Re:anybody ever blow the carb off the manifold. 2 Years, 6 Months ago   fireman922 wrote:4 points to get it to stay on?

Paul If you want good fit, serviceability and reliability, stick to stock the gain isn't enough to outweigh the worry. If I knew I could get a stock one to seal I would be back to Curt's ported manifold myself. And the four points on contact is a bar just like yours on top and one that goes across just like it on the bottom going across the side of the bowl where the screws go up that hold the bowl. Looks pretty good but more crap to line up when you have it off.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #237321 Erbman02 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3803 Re:anybody ever blow the carb off the manifold. 2 Years, 6 Months ago   Makcap wrote: Hey Paul he is sick but yamaha went thru several stock intakes and couldn't get a seal.

Ben can make a manifold specific for the 42hsr, but it won't ever fit the stock carb, and the manifold he makes for the stock carb, a 42hsr will fit as long as you shim under the friction boot connector.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #237344 Flashback (Moderator) Just the facts, Ma'am.. Moderator Posts: 9221 Re:anybody ever blow the carb off the manifold. 2 Years, 6 Months ago   Don't discount the speedstar manifold, it's made to fit the 42 or the 45..been running one for a couple of years now and no problems...   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #237349 Makcap (User) How boring it would be if we were all the same Platinum Boarder Posts: 1736 Re:anybody ever blow the carb off the manifold. 2 Years, 6 Months ago   Erbman02 wrote: Makcap wrote: Hey Paul he is sick but yamaha went thru several stock intakes and couldn't get a seal.

That is what I did and we talked about that also but i had the stock carb at the time.   Logged     RIDE DS:219 MASSILLON OHIO   The administrator has disabled public write access. #237438 Erbman02 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3803 Re:anybody ever blow the carb off the manifold. 2 Years, 6 Months ago   Makcap wrote: That is what I did and we talked about that also but i had the stock carb at the time. Thats why I went with the nemesis, I was a little concerned about a friction fit, However, the Nemesis boot is garbage, I replaced it with radiator hose.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
