Re: Project Gretta: The evolution of a confused '74 360
Well, yes and no.
I got a set of CR carbs, but they are going to have to have a custom manifold mate to get them to work, and they are missing part of the linkage brackets to make them work. Still a good deal on Ebay for $120 for the pair...the problem is that they are WAY big for this motor. So for the time being, I got a set of Mikuni VM32s to run just for simplicity. I have had very good luck with them in the past, and they are brand new and prejetted...and I have a synchronizer that will fit them. This will at least get me on the road while I can bench build the CRs and then bolt them up when ready...
I am going to build a set of custom manifolds to make them work that have a slight outward angle to them (kind of like a CB350 has stock). There is a big clearance issue right now.
