sportster intake manifold

can any year evo sportster use the same intake manifolds. looking to put a carb on my 07 and i know an 04-06 will fit but what about the older years. some people on ebay list 86-up. some people list 03-06. i would prefer to get one without the map sensor bung if i could because im just going to weld it up.

The FI heads are machined a little different than o6 heads and that makes the gap a hair wider. You can use a stock manifold but it is not a clean fit and you might struggle with getting the intake to seal up well. I have a turbo on mine and that poor fit was not going to cut it so I took a larger S&S manifold and sanded it to fit.

might just order a manifold from s&s then because they have one that fits so they say. as long as i can run a rgular oem cv carb on it then im golden

s&s said the manifold that they sale is only $85 but it will only fit their "e" carb. and i do not want to run an s&s carb.

there is a press on adapter that will go on a cv carb and mount to an s&s manifold i just ran one on my ironhead i just sold
i also have a rubber adapter for the cv to the s&s manifold i would sell pm me if interested

whats the deal dude? is this for you 21"s sporty? I thought you were all about the simple efi set up you had going? Sorry for the off topic I've just been wondering this since seeing this thread a few days ago

yep. still not diggin the efi. i did all i can but i cant make it look good enough and its ugly and i am tired of the wiring and running issues, tuning etc.....

This is my manifold after I took the dremel and the polishing wheel to it. It looked like this before. after

Hell yeah^ I run an s and s intake on my ironhead with rubber adapter and a cv carb. It works like a champion!

for all your info. an 04-06 manifold does not fit a 07. not even close. so now im wondering how s&s manifold fits.

Has there been anything to update on this....?

an 04-06 fits. my other post was wrong. you have to use the flanges from the throttle body though and it works great
