Someone on the list posted the source for the nipples with the correct
thread.  I believe that it was Dr. Evil (not a joke - that is his ID)
Unfortunately, I lost that post when Hotmail cleared out my mail file.  Does
anyone recall the source of these brass British pipe thread nipples?

Thanks,

Sid

I screwed nipples into the air injector holes in the 
intake manifold.  I used a motorcycle syncromanometer on 
the nipples.  The syncromanometer has four mercury tubes 
that allow you to see the vacuum on all four throats at 
the same time.  It took a little work to get the system 
all set up, but now I don't have to mess with the air 
filter or uni-syn.  I always feel like measuring the 
vacuum on one carb at a time skews the whole process.  
It's the Heisenberg uncertainty principle in the real 
world.
