you mean the little brackets that screw to the top of the carbs ???careful what you wish for.........you might get it -
I am guessing it is the 2 angle iron pieces. The later model carbs don't have those pieces on top you are talking about.Originally posted by mxmikie View PostNathan

Yes I know that the later carbs have 2 angle iron brackets that are on the sides (i have a set of '81 carbs). The early carbs have only 1 angle iron bracket and then the three little prices that connect the caps together.Originally posted by motoman View Post
So what he needs in the end depend on the hole spacing on the new carbs that he buys. Or you could just buy a piece of angle iron and drill holes to suit your carbs.Nathan

bracket
I can send you the larger lower bracket from an older set. Then you should be able to set alignment to make the smaller upper bracket. Just let me know.Tom Clisham
