Can BS38 solex carbs run on a ram intake

[jimmybrown78]

I bought a tunnel ram intake manifold that Joe wiseguy make and i want to run the carbs that came with my build. They are BS38 solex from a 1972, and the intake manifold I attached a picture of it.

I wanted those off eBay. Thought they might go for cheap. But nope. Originally guy only wanted 150$. But to answer your question. I believe bs38 have throttle linkage that controls both carbs. So unless you want to fab something up. Doesn't look like plug and play. As say a set of vm34.

the carbs are dual throttle, but the choke is only on the left carb and they are attached by 2 tubes. And lol i ended up spending more than i wanted to on them but it was cheaper the buying them from wiseguys.....I should have just hit the "buy it now " button. before i started biding.

Hey, jimmy. When using ram air, the bowl vents need to be tied to the inlet area. That way, the carbs think they're simply experiencing an altitude change. Otherwise, they'll run extremely lean when the ram air hits them...

Yeah. You should have just hit that buy it now button. Good luck and post results
