Scoop/A Little help

[jstwkd]

I purchased a dual carb set up and the scoop does'nt fit flush to the carbs. Not even close.Am I missing something?I would have to lift the front of the carbs about 1/2 an inch.???????

If you could show us a pic I'm sure someone might have suggestion.

are you sure the enter spacing is correct? dual carb setups have different center spacings.
( centerspacing is the messurement form center to center on the carbs) good luck wink :D and pics usally help.

Any more photos of the spectra? Hows it going?And how about the 20 footer one of your buddies picked up last year.The yellow one.

Your carbs may be staggered top to bottom. My brother has an Edelbrock Tunnel ram that the rear carb is about 1/2" higher than the front one.
The other possibility is that the scoop is intended for that style carb layout, and you don't have it.
