[QUOTE="ET43, post: 24178, member: 62"] My 636cc engine has a 36mm carb fitted on a head with standard stud spacings. I went to an exhaust pipe manufacturer and got him to bend up some 38mm x 1mm wall tube to my desired bend. The tube was then partially slit from the head end, welded up to match the ported head ( 34mm ) dressed up clean and then had a flange made from sheet steel which after welding was linished flat. My particluar application has a shrunk on alloy tube machined to take the rubber adapter hose of the carb, the alloy tube being tapered to blend it all in. I used this system on the Red twin outfit for 23 years with no problem. Good Luck, ET43 [/QUOTE]
