That looks good. And I'll probably buy one of the UMP Covers for the EMPI-IDF-44 on my Chenowth If my son doesn't have his friend Manwelder make one for him. In the past, me or my son would have made such a piece ourselves, but I don't get very active in the garage with my cancer and my son is now building fighter planes, so it would be easier to have our friend do it. Manuel makes a great deal of the items that Kartek sells anyway. _________________ Richard

Hey Offroaders - I noticed on my cheapie chrome air filter one of the mount welds was broken. A simple drill and rivet was all that was needed.
As I was fixing it I thought "Why not upgrade?" . I live on a dirt road and cruise easy dirt roads in my 66 with a 1600 dual port.
I would love one of those Vintage Speed ones, but they are only sold in pack of 2. This Kartek one looks pretty cool: https://www.kartek.com/parts/kartek-off-road-2-sol...stack.html
What do y'all recommend?
Thanks |
