Thermoquad to square-bore adapter mods

So how will these work if they spin while trying to tighten the nuts? Ask no more. Simply drill and tap a small hole for the set screws. I also ended up grinding a slightly large flat spot on the bolt head for the set screw to snug up to. Problem solved.

A quick way to accomplish the bolt not turning in the hole would have been to grind off five of the six corners on the bolt head and then mill/drill/grind/carve a spot on the hole for that last corner to drop into. The bolt is now keyed in to the hole and can't turn while tightening, but just drops in and out like a normal bolt. No extra hardware required and faster than drilling/tapping for a set screw.

Good job accomplishing what you were trying to do and for sharing. I don't know that if the plate will work as intended, but looks like you can at least mount the carb now.
