gstaten24 Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 so i just got my new carbs in (35mm pwks) and when i put them on i could barely fit the air filters on as there was like no room. once i finally did get them put on they were resting on the exhaust pipes. is there anything i can do about this? i thought about getting the filters that are angled but those wont work because they are literally touching each other so they wont be able to angle in. what have you guys done with this issue? thanks!

ban565 Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Cascade Innovations in Oregon has heat wraps for the silencers that will keep the pipes from hittting the filters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robert.b.west Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 I use the 10 deg. I have run the cascade heat wraps and I am currently using header wrap to keep them from burning the outerwears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gstaten24 Posted May 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Yea I kno cascade innovations I'm from that area, how does the heat wrap work? That's what I was originally thinking of doing if it'll work and won't burn my outerwears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert.b.west Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Both ways work good. The heat wrap you will need to wrap it a few times. My outerwears have never melted and they are sitting up against the heat wrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
