Have a street car question for yall. Assembly of Will?s car continues and I was test fitting the carbs and manifold I was planning to use. It?s a TR4A intake paired with HS6s. This is what I use on the TR3 race car. On the street car, the rear float is very close to the heater bulkhead fitting (see pictures). Has anyone done this on a street car and have a good solution to this interference? It looks like we could move the bulkhead fitting over by about 3-4? w/o issue, just hate to put another hole in the firewall. Appreciate ideas. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

They seem harder to find now but I think part is AN848-6D for a 3/8" hose ID. Here is one for 1/2" hose to give you the idea: https://www.bandbaircraftsupplies.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=17180&category_id=12&vmcchk=1&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=73&redirected=1&Itemid=73 I reused an old bulkhead fitting for the attachment flange, just as easy to fabricate the mount out of some thin sheet stock.
