Re: 76 custom with Vmax carbs
I remember it well because at the time it came out I had a set of Vmax carburetors on the shelf. Very unique and intriguing project.
...Now if the Vboost feature of the Vmax could have been incorporated, that would be something! Impossible however given the difference in geometry.

I remember it well. How is it running for the new owner?
Whatever I suggest here should be given ample time for a moderator to delicately correct. I apologize in advance.
