intake boot question

[Mcknight#5]

what intake boot do you use to run a 38 or 39 carb.
the cheaper the better.

you can use the stock intake boot but you will need to soak it in hot water to get it to work or use an intake from a cr250. when using the cr250, you most likely need a spacer plate.

will it really fit in with out ripping it dosent look like it will fit but i have a spare at least.

yea it'll fit but, it'll take some help from a buddy lol. what i do is soak the boot and intake in a pot of hot water to soften em up. work the boot en intake onto the carb and have a zip tie handy to hold it in place. after its cooled off, it'll hold shape.

I bought an alum intake because my stocker was old an brittle, I had done the hot water trick to get it on to my 36 pj, but no way was it gonna make it around my new 39 ayrstryker so 55 bucks and all is good again!
