ok so far, I have modified the sami thermal spacer to work with the yota carb. I have to re tap the fuel inlet hose adapter to a 3/8. hopefully ill have it done tomorrow

Let us know how you like it.  Boxcar runs a similar setup and has reported good things.

well it did not go as smoothly as i planned. this is the first carb swap ive done so it was rough. i have a few kinks to work out and am taking it to a shop that works on carbs and have them do a once over.

Sounds like a vacuum leak, is it running any better?
