i dont think theres enough room for the 79 air box and the 490 engine and carb so i might have to get a alloy box made too suit the space ive got,i dont really want to machine the barrell /inlet shorter to make room .its a tight squeeze  ill take it over to stackers and fit it all up and get a pipe made to suit then pull it all down and start from scratch should look ok when finished
