Prefer cool looking ones, since I've given up on making my own...because they probably wouldn't look cool.

I'd also rather not have to mill/alter the cylinders.

These are cool looking. Any adapter will likely require some port matching. You won't need to worry about cutting any cylinder fins off or anything drastic like that with these and the appropriate rubber manifolds. I believe rubber manifolds should be available from any Sudco dealer.

I've not seen these personally...are they drilled to use the OEM H2 rubber manifolds? Sorry, can't read German. Isn't this Ralf's buddy?

I've got those German mounts....they are very nice! Especially dig the little pine trees printed on them. :thumbup:

One thing you'll probably have to do Steve is keep an eye on the "top of adapter to cylinder fin" clearance.

I had to remove a bit of material (bench grinder/belt sander/polish) from the top of each adapter as it was too tight (rubbed cylinder fin) and would not allow the adapter block to be pulled in tight to the face of the cylinder.. Other than that. piece of cake.

I do have denco manifolds on the Denco H1 (Small Body VM34's). The German blocks are on the Hybrid (VM30 H2 carbs)

The German blocks are angled a bit so the carbs aren't at such a dramatic angle..probably better for fuel/floatbowl level. Denco blocks are just staight blocks. That said, I've never had any problems with the Denco H1 carb angle.

The German blocks took into account the oil injection banjo bolts and have plenty of clearance. The Denco blocks (especially the left one) had to be modified to clear the banjo

The German blocks do not provide as smooth of a "flow" path as the Denco blocks, so some port matching might not be a bad idea. Denco blocks have a "polished" inner bore were port matched to the intake port of the cylinders.. Everything is smooth and step-free.
