Bingo, Boss. You got it.

Petcock is already swapped out. Standard Res-off-on. No sos.

Making new rails to get the spacing sorted would probably be pretty simple. Not sure what would be needed as far as lengthening or shortening the actuator shafts. I don't have any too look at, but iirc, they are like CV's with the fuel supply tubes, accel pump fuel tubes, etc. All that would have to be custom made if any of the spacing was even slightly altered. Which would be a fun little project, but I don't want to sink weeks of fab work in to a rack of carbs that will perform poorly. I also don't want to sink alot of $$ into CR's,either.

A complete rack of CR 29's (or 31's) with the correct adapters (for the DOHC boots) run $730-ish. The do come ''pre-jetted" and, if you buy from Dynoman, the come with one size up and down main jets for tuning. Cool package,just pricey.
