Leaving old rubber fuel lines, or braided hoses splitting, or loose olives (?) as the potential risks to be aware of, I guess. A good fuel pressure regulator is what you need with Webers and set it correctly as they only need about 3-4psi. Sturt Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What about fire resistant, or retardant, foam, though? I can see that more airflow gets into a filter that has only one side, the mounting bracket side, occluded.

Well, I did think it over since. Really not worth the risk, is it? I don't mind being wrong. Foam filters, new as they are, will have to come off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
