oh no, ford carbs on slant!

thats right folks, could not find the carbs i needed to install my offy 2-1bbl. intake so i got with a friend of mine who runs a slant . turns out he had the same trouble some years ago and talked to an OLD motor head who turned him onto the idea of running these ford style carbs. I must admit, seems like a mortal sin, putting ford parts on the old girl, but his runs AWSOME! So now I'm giving it a shot. I was able to buy both carbs from a local parts house for $100.00 for both, guy was glad to see them off his shelve since they have been there for years. Couple of bucks for some steel tubing and alittle time for bending lines, not bad for an trail idea.
