The intake manifold is the piece that joins the carb to the head. Screws are
on the bend that comes from the head.

 Where are these screws? On the carbs? I am having a brain fart here on
where the intake manifolds are. BTW, I have individual K&N's on the
carbs. I sort of remember taking out a screw somewhere on the carb,
inserting these adapter pipes, and sliding the hoses over them, just
can't recall where to insert these adapter tubes. Perhaps I need to
pull the sidecovers and take a look on the inside area of the carbs.
The area on the carb I was checking out before was right next to the
banjos, its a tube sticking out just like the fuel mixture tube - I
guess it's universal for multiple applications and you just use one side
for the mixture screw and plug the other. Can you please be specific
where I should look for this screw? Is it near the mixture or idle
speed screws? On the opposite side near the banjo?

Thanx!

My '72 Eldo does have screws in the intakes...
