Thanks, The rubber boot intakes I were using were from a cali-2 and the
would not allow the side covers to go on, I tried the delrin intakes but
their angle was not much better

Howdy Karl,

I've got a pair of 36's that I am going to put on the Eldo, most likely.
I have the intake stubs from a 850 Lemans and the rubber elbows from the SP
1000. The rubber may be from the II series. Anyway, this turns the carbs in
enough to use the proper sidecovers and should run pretty well.
I may have to get another set as these manifold goodies have gone to use on
the fuelie setup for my Ambassador. I'll have to let ya know how that works
out.

 I am just guessing but the way ducati's are set up with their V
configuration I believe the carb adjustments are on the same side but most
of the Ducatis I have seen had pinch clamps vs the rubber boot set up.
Being 40mm I would say they are from a duck vs a guzzi, since the 40's
were
 only used on the early LeMans as a special option from what I have read,
so
 there are not many around.

I mounted some round slide rubber mount 32 delloto's on my eldo and had
some clearance problems with the side covers using the stock rubber boot
intakes. I am probably going to end up making some custom intakes for it
as
 the stock eldo intakes are to small to clamp the carb boot on. For now I
have taken a set of 74 amal intakes and milled the carb mounts round so
the
 boot can clamp to it. The problem I found with this set up is it spaces
the carb back a ways and it effects the mid rage throttle.

Don't know how to tell. they have what look like KN filters and I would
guess, clamp on rubber boot type mounts. Maybe you can tell me how to
tell.
