          you want to drill an tap it above the fuel level so the pressure picked up from the pitot tube will help force fuel into the carb throat. you might look into how the overflow vent is set up on yours, that will work just as well as long as you are sure to plug all the other atmospheric vents.

              i can't tell from the pic. you want to plug all atmospheric vents except the vent tube and plumb the hose from the pitot tube into it. it'll be the one that isn't the fuel feed.

                  Wow!!! You lost me a long way back!!! You really know what you are doing!!!! I may modify the appearance of my rides, but as far as motor section, I leave them stock as much as possible!!!

                      very cool. as I have nothing else to do with the bike at the moment, I'm considering trying to turbo my KZ305, and will definitely have some questions for you.

                        For blow through applications a C.V. carb seems to be better because of the way the slide is operated, controlling fuel and helps to eliminate flat spots in throttle response.

                          Nice!

                          Is that a low compression turbo you're using? I have three "bolt-on turbos" from Ford Sierra turbo diesel engines (American version was the Ford Merkur). Possible future projects/disasters

                            Merkur's had a T3 on em. Decent turbo.

                                I have a tx500 I plan on twin turboing it with Tiny turbos I'm just like everyone else kinda confused on the whole carb mess with blow through. Anyway would it be better to convert it to a single carb or keep the doubles Thx
