Good.

I've been following, but when it's a bit here and a bit there I have trouble keeping everything straight.

Any chance that this kit would work on a 350f?
if im not mistaken the carbs on the cb350f are 35mm and this kit is 40mm. it might possibly work but would probably need some modification.

new developments in the RS34 and CR carb stacks. i made a slight mistake and believe that the velocity stacks should fit the intake kit just fine. more detail about the stacks on this page http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=98626.msg1099998#msg1099998

which will work better? came up with 2 different designs for the RS34 and CR carbs. the first one is the same shape as tintop's but i wasnt sure how it would perform due to the bell being smaller because of the size increase. the second is what i thought up to possibly try and compensate with a curve that is twice as long as the other. both bells are the same diameter. the difference is in the curve

Apologies for not jumping in for awhile, I'm in the process of moving this week. ::)

Re the 350F - the carb spacing is tighter then the 500/550, so the filter is too wide for the bike.  I originally checked this out on my 76 400SS.  It would require a completely different kit.

Re the stacks for CR's / RS34's.  I have already supplied just a filter (no stacks/ undrilled), so that is not an issue.  However, given the cost outlay, I not prepared to change any of the current dimensions.  So as long as they can fit within the existing filter effectively, I am willing to supply the filter/back plate assembly.

So as to not confuse people as to what is currently available, let's keep the CR/RS stack discussion in its own thread.

Also still interested in a set. I would suggest taking orders around mid January. Tax returns for U.S.~

  Oh yah, has anyone figured out proper tuning with these yet? Jet change/needle/etc?

Shinneh, read back a page or two. TTop estimated a shipment around the holidays, and his manufacturing run may all be spoken for by folks who've sent a deposit. I too am on the edge of my seat.

gemimimotors is correct, the current order is sold out (x10 ordered > 6-750 & 4-550).  I sent an email re expected delivery, but with the holidays have not had a firm reply yet.  I will be following up next week, and will post as soon as I get a reply.

'edit' - I also moved the end of November, and this didn't help, so my apologies to all who have placed a deposit.

Ah shucks-Guess that's what I get for not paying attention. Welp, due to the success here, I'm sure there'll be another run.

How about that jetting info?

I've sent an email re expected delivery for the current order, which is sold out.  Once that has been rec'd and on its way, I'll look at putting another order together.  Because of my move (new town, 170 miles east), things are in a bit of chaos.  All my stuff (bikes & tools) are currently in storage. :(  So I'll be using my Harley riding ::) brother inlaw's things to do the final prep.  My apologies to those who have placed a deposit, and are waiting.

Just sent final payment.  Paid in FULL!!!   Good feeling.  Now it'll feel like Christmas all over again when the Anti-pod for my CB550 appears on my doorstep.    Man I  hope it's  soon.  The anticipation is killing me!!    ;D
