On this motor the two pistons in the front and two in the rear, move up and down together, one is power while the other is exhaust, so the airflow would be smoothest with one carb to front one to rear. I think the log sounds more doable in the space provided by Honda. Ill have to check dimensions. Is there a problem with feeding one log with two carbs? It seam like if it worked it could be more forgiving of minor sync problems.
