Have you tried the new Drafts feature yet? I just lost a long message today and learned my lesson. It is a good idea to save a draft of any long post you are writing. You can then just keep writing and keep saving a draft, knowing you have a backup if there is a glitch. The draft is automatically deleted when you post the message.

On my 80plus are the stubs for the carbs missing.
I think it is very difficult to find these. So my idea is to make a model and cast a set in aluminium.
I will fit 276 Amals with stub fitting.

Has someone measures or even a drawing of these stubs (I think it´s the same for left and right cylinder head).

I will be happy for help.

Michael,
             I doubt that alloy castings of that thin a section would be strong enough. I have just looked through my factory list of components used on the 'Plus', and it shows the stub assembly as a fabricated part (Number SA2758) and the individual items as 38016 (flange) and 38017 (stub pipe) - both in mild steel. Both LH and RH being the same.

   Hope this helps,
                           Regards,
                                         Eddie.
