    How many outlets do they have?
    Unless there is a "Prime" you shouldn't have to do much besides remove the extra plumbing.
    You will end up with two fuel inlet lines to the carbs. Just hook 'em up.

        this is a totally different thread, but TC put up the Octopus diagram.
        Cap off vac port on carb boot.
        Can reuse "tee's". short line from carb to tee, then one to "on" and other to "reserve".

          Yeah, what mro said.
          If the reserve and run are separate, you need to tee them.
