After much fabrication and alternative parts, it is installed. Not having a manifold ported for a map sensor complicates things significantly. I wasn’t going to settle for some pro rated refund because it was out of box. Much work left to do, but I’m committed to making it work.
Havent put it on yet but if its as good as the customer service i recieved getting the carb itll be breezy!
Fast shipping and it is in stalled runs great
Carb was installed per the O.E.M. Instructions, set-up and it runs and performs better than new! The JP Cycle online order was perfect!
